Postmatch editorial
The scoreboard moved against the pre-match lean
The final score was Fiorentina 1-2 Hellas Verona. It landed away from the main pre-match lean and counts as a genuine twist in the numbers.
The decisive turn arrived late when Gift Orban scored 90+3' for Hellas Verona.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Fiorentina led Possession 65%-35%, even though the scoreboard went another way. Fiorentina also shaded Corners 9-4.
Before kickoff, our model made Fiorentina the likeliest result at 54.8%, while the median bookmaker line priced Fiorentina at 50.0% implied. On BTTS, the model leaned No (56.7%), and that angle missed.
