Post-match analysis
Final score, verified match data and the original model prediction.
Troyes won 2–0 against Le Mans. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.
Expected goals were 1.70 for Troyes and 0.28 for Le Mans. Troyes generated the higher xG total. Troyes scored +0.30 goals relative to xG and Le Mans scored -0.28 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.
Troyes registered 14 shots, with 8 on target (shot accuracy: 57.1%); Le Mans recorded 3 shots, with 1 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 Home (39.4%); the actual outcome was Home, so the leading selection matched the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
