Moneyball's prediction against the result

A correct call on the result: 47% for a Brest win before the match. The scoreline, 5-1, was not the estimate's first choice (1-1).

The match had far more goals than expected: the estimate was about 2.9 goals and there were 6.

Over 2.5 goals had been put at 56%; with 6 goals the over came in, as the estimate leaned.

Both teams to score was 59%; both did, in line with the estimate.

Computed before kick-off from both sides' season goals and expected goals as of 2026-10-09, through a Dixon-Coles score model, and left as it was.

Why it went this way

On the day the expected goals were 1.26 for Brest and 2.79 for Angers SCO.

Brest scored about 3.7 more than their chances were worth: clinical finishing, or a goalkeeper having a bad day.

Angers SCO left about 1.8 goals' worth of chances on the pitch.

Angers SCO created the better chances, 2.79 xG to 1.26, and still lost. On chances alone, the result could easily have gone the other way.

The run of play itself went against the pre-match reading: Moneyball expected Brest to create more, and Angers SCO did.

Brest had 9 shots on target, Angers SCO 3.

Brest had 54% of the ball and turned it into the win.

A red card changed the shape of the match, and no pre-match model can see one coming.

Where the two sides stood before this match

Brest came into it with 6 Ligue 1 matches played, scoring 2.0 and conceding 1.5 a match, with 2.21 expected goals for and 1.18 against, and had won 33% of their matches.

Angers SCO came into it with 6 Ligue 1 matches played, scoring 1.2 and conceding 1.7 a match, with 1.55 expected goals for and 1.81 against, and had won 33% of their matches.
