Pre-match analysis and preview

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.

Real Madrid won 3–0 away to Racing de Santander. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.

Expected goals were 1.15 for Racing de Santander and 3.45 for Real Madrid. Real Madrid generated the higher xG total. Racing de Santander scored -1.15 goals relative to xG and Real Madrid scored -0.45 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.

Racing de Santander registered 10 shots, with 1 on target (shot accuracy: 10.0%); Real Madrid recorded 22 shots, with 7 on target (shot accuracy: 31.8%). Shot accuracy is shots on target divided by total shots, not a measure of chance quality.

The model's highest-probability 1X2 outcome was Away (52.7%); the actual outcome was Away, so the leading selection matched the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
