📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Sharjah FC and Shabab Al Ahli Dubai finished level at 0-0 at Sharjah Stadium, Regular Season - 19, in the Pro League. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Sharjah FC 1.08 xG and Shabab Al Ahli Dubai 1.19 xG, a combined 2.27. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Sharjah FC fell 1.1 short of their projected output. Shabab Al Ahli Dubai landed 1.2 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Sharjah FC attack 0.91 / defence 0.69 against Shabab Al Ahli Dubai attack 1.27 / defence 0.76, drawn from 43/43 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Sharjah FC 33% | Draw 29% | Shabab Al Ahli Dubai 38%, with Shabab Al Ahli Dubai to win its most likely call at 38%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 29%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 40%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 66% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 46% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 66% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Sharjah FC 54%, Shabab Al Ahli Dubai 79%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 63%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Sharjah FC's trading profile (43 games, 20 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 60% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 35% of the time, and duly kept one.

Shabab Al Ahli Dubai's trading profile (43 games, 20 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 65% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 30% of the time, and duly kept one.
