Postmatch editorial

The script held and Juventus delivered it

The final score was Juventus 2-1 Roma. The strongest pre-match signals were already leaning toward that outcome.

Francisco Conceição put the first mark on the match 44', setting the tone for the rest of the night.

The numbers leaned the same way as the scoreline: Juventus led Shots on target 9-5. Roma also shaded Corners 2-4.

Before kickoff, our model made Juventus the likeliest result at 49.6%, while the median bookmaker line priced Juventus at 48.8% implied. On BTTS, the model leaned No (53.5%), and that angle missed.
