Post-match analysis
Final score, verified match data and the original model prediction.
Fluminense won 3–0 away to Vitória. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.
Expected goals were 0.82 for Vitória and 1.90 for Fluminense. Fluminense generated the higher xG total. Vitória scored -0.82 goals relative to xG and Fluminense scored +1.10 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.
Vitória registered 11 shots, with 5 on target (shot accuracy: 45.5%); Fluminense recorded 14 shots, with 7 on target (shot accuracy: 50.0%). 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 (39.7%); the actual outcome was Away, so the leading selection matched the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
