Our prediction before kickoff

We had Augsburg 40% to win, 27% for a draw, Freiburg 33%. Freiburg won, a result we gave 33%. The final margin was 1.1 goals from ours; 35% of matches like this end further from the forecast than that.

Most of the distance between a forecast and a final score is luck: even with both clubs’ strength known exactly, a few shots decide a soccer match. Made Sat, Oct 31, 14:01 CET and frozen at kickoff. How our predictions have done

About these numbers

Scores and goals from openfootball (public domain), the newest also from OpenLigaDB (Open Database License). Neither has no shots, so there is no expected goals for this match and no finishing luck: the replay, the in-game win probability and the luck index are our own models, built from the season’s goals alone (methodology and validation). The luck index is how far the result was from what the goals say. Freiburg win 48% of replays (a draw counted as half).
