Post-match analysis

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

Borussia M'gladbach and SC Paderborn 07 drew 0–0. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.

Expected goals were 1.03 for Borussia M'gladbach and 1.02 for SC Paderborn 07. Borussia M'gladbach generated the higher xG total. Borussia M'gladbach scored -1.03 goals relative to xG and SC Paderborn 07 scored -1.02 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.

Borussia M'gladbach registered 12 shots, with 4 on target (shot accuracy: 33.3%); SC Paderborn 07 recorded 13 shots, with 4 on target (shot accuracy: 30.8%). Shot accuracy is shots on target divided by total shots, not a measure of chance quality.

The model's highest-probability 1X2 outcome was Home (48.5%); the actual outcome was Draw, so the leading selection did not match the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
