Naftan’s poor run of three defeats continued as Bate Borisov, buoyed by a recent win, dominated the match, ending 0-7 and confirming the model’s prediction of an away win with a 53% chance. The total of seven goals far exceeded the expected 2.2 and the most likely total of two, making the game a clear outlier. The model’s favourite was correct, as the away side secured victory. The only other selection was Under 3.5, with an 82% probability, which missed as the scoreline blew past the threshold. The final result was a decisive away triumph, a stark contrast to the modest expectations.
