Pre-match analysis and preview

Verified historical context from before kickoff; preserved for comparison after the final result.

Post-match analysis

Final score, verified match data and the original model prediction.

Angers won 1–0 against Olympique de Marseille. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.

Expected goals were 2.21 for Angers and 2.71 for Olympique de Marseille. Olympique de Marseille generated the higher xG total. Angers scored -1.21 goals relative to xG and Olympique de Marseille scored -2.71 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.

Angers registered 11 shots, with 3 on target (shot accuracy: 27.3%); Olympique de Marseille recorded 21 shots, with 8 on target (shot accuracy: 38.1%). Shot accuracy is shots on target divided by total shots, not a measure of chance quality.
