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

This analysis is based on available league records and the pre-match snapshot. Missing samples are not estimated; player availability, injuries and tactical claims are not inferred.

Post-match analysis

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

Moreirense won 3–1 away to Estoril Praia. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.

Expected goals were 2.01 for Estoril Praia and 1.33 for Moreirense. Estoril Praia generated the higher xG total. Estoril Praia scored -1.01 goals relative to xG and Moreirense scored +1.67 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.

Estoril Praia registered 26 shots, with 7 on target (shot accuracy: 26.9%); Moreirense 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 (42.7%); the actual outcome was Away, so the leading selection did not match the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
