Post-match analysis

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

FC Bayern München won 2–0 away to Atlético Madrid. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.

Expected goals were 0.83 for Atlético Madrid and 1.77 for FC Bayern München. FC Bayern München generated the higher xG total. Atlético Madrid scored -0.83 goals relative to xG and FC Bayern München scored +0.23 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.

Atlético Madrid registered 9 shots, with 3 on target (shot accuracy: 33.3%); FC Bayern München recorded 19 shots, with 5 on target (shot accuracy: 26.3%). Shot accuracy is shots on target divided by total shots, not a measure of chance quality.

The model's highest-probability 1X2 outcome was Away (58.5%); the actual outcome was Away, so the leading selection matched the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
