Post-match analysis

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

FC Porto won 1–0 away to Gil Vicente. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.

Expected goals were 0.35 for Gil Vicente and 1.08 for FC Porto. FC Porto generated the higher xG total. Gil Vicente scored -0.35 goals relative to xG and FC Porto scored -0.08 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.

Gil Vicente registered 10 shots, with 2 on target (shot accuracy: 20.0%); FC Porto recorded 12 shots, with 4 on target (shot accuracy: 33.3%). 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 (52.0%); the actual outcome was Away, so the leading selection matched the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
