Udinese vs Roma
Pre-match analysis and preview
Verified historical context from before kickoff; preserved for comparison after the final result.
Udinese host Roma in Serie A. 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, Udinese collected 3 points (0 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses). Roma earned 9 points from 5 matches (2 wins, 3 draws and 0 losses). These are separate recent-form samples, not a forecast of the final score.

Where full-quality xG is available, Udinese average 1.11 xG and 2.19 xGA over 4 recent matches; Roma average 1.79 xG and 1.88 xGA over 5 matches. xG coverage can be smaller than the recent-results sample.
At the prediction timestamp, the reconstructed league table places Udinese in position 16 and Roma in position 3. 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.
Roma won 5–2 away to Udinese. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.
Expected goals were 1.81 for Udinese and 2.84 for Roma. Roma generated the higher xG total. Udinese scored +0.19 goals relative to xG and Roma scored +2.16 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.
Udinese registered 15 shots, with 7 on target (shot accuracy: 46.7%); Roma recorded 14 shots, with 9 on target (shot accuracy: 64.3%). 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 (59.2%); the actual outcome was Away, so the leading selection matched the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
