Postmatch editorial

Sevilla settled a divided pre-match read

The final score was Getafe 0-1 Sevilla. The model and the market were not perfectly aligned, but one side of that divide ended up cashing out.

Djibril Sow put the first mark on the match 64', setting the tone for the rest of the night.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Getafe led Shots on target 3-1, even though the scoreboard went another way. Sevilla also shaded Possession 31%-69%.

Before kickoff, our model made Sevilla the likeliest result at 35.9%, while the median bookmaker line priced Getafe at 42.6% implied. On BTTS, the model leaned No (51.9%), and that angle landed.
