Results analysis
The upset came early, as the pre-match favourite, Home win, with a 39% chance, failed to deliver, with the final score 1-3 giving an Away win. The model’s call was wrong. The team’s recent form - after two straight defeats - was a warning sign, while the visitors, on a three-game winning run, were in fine rhythm. The model’s selection Over 1.5, with a 77.2% probability, hit, while Under 3.5, at 70.3%, missed. The most likely total of 2 goals (25%) did not materialise, and the predicted 1-1 or 2-1 outcomes were also off. Overall, the predictions fell short of the match reality.
