· Final

Pre-match analysis and preview

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

Pumas UNAM host Club América in Liga MX. This preview compares historical records dated before the prediction was locked with the model's pre-match probabilities. Probabilities describe estimated outcomes, not guaranteed results.

Across their last 5 recorded league matches, Pumas UNAM collected 8 points (2 wins, 2 draws and 1 losses). Club América earned 8 points from 5 matches (2 wins, 2 draws and 1 losses). These are separate recent-form samples, not a forecast of the final score.

At home, Pumas UNAM have 1 wins, 3 draws and 1 losses in their last 5 recorded home matches. On the road, Club América have 4 wins, 0 draws and 1 losses across 5 away matches.

Where full-quality xG is available, Pumas UNAM average 1.54 xG and 1.54 xGA over 5 recent matches; Club América average 2.16 xG and 1.37 xGA over 5 matches. xG coverage can be smaller than the recent-results sample.

At the prediction timestamp, the reconstructed league table places Pumas UNAM in position 10 and Club América in position 1. The table uses matches dated before the prediction timestamp; later backfills cannot be independently excluded.

The database contains 5 earlier head-to-head meetings in this competition, shown below. Historical meetings provide context, not certainty.

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.

Pumas UNAM and Club América drew 2–2. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.

Expected goals were 1.57 for Pumas UNAM and 1.83 for Club América. Club América generated the higher xG total. Pumas UNAM scored +0.43 goals relative to xG and Club América scored +0.17 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.

Pumas UNAM registered 16 shots, with 3 on target (shot accuracy: 18.8%); Club América recorded 12 shots, with 2 on target (shot accuracy: 16.7%). 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 (55.7%); the actual outcome was Draw, so the leading selection did not match the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
