Postmatch editorial

Draw settled a divided pre-match read

The final score was Como 0-0 Napoli. The model and the market were not perfectly aligned, but one side of that divide ended up cashing out.

Neither Como nor Napoli found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Como led Shots on target 5-1, even though the scoreboard went another way. Como also shaded Total shots 16-8.

Before kickoff, our model made Como the likeliest result at 39.1%, while the median bookmaker line priced Como at 44.4% implied. On BTTS, the model leaned Yes (52.2%), and that angle missed.
