Goals against chances

Gent4 from 1.89 xGmore than the chances were worth
Anderlecht0 from 1.55 xGless than the chances were worth

Expected goals totals what the openings were worth, so the gap between it and the score is the finishing — and the luck. Under half a goal either way is called level: xG is an estimate and a smaller gap than that is inside its own error.

The result against the call

Gent beat Anderlecht 4–0. The model had made a win for Gent its most likely outcome, at 48%, so the call held; the score it named was 1–0. The goals: A. Kadri 14' for Gent, I. Cisse 73' for Gent, M. Sonko 77' for Gent, M. Volckaert 81' for Gent. On expected goals it finished 1.89–1.55.

What this result changed

Before kick-off the season simulation gave Gent a 85.8% chance to finish in the top four: 89.7% after a win, 84.0% after a draw, 80.1% after a defeat. The win was the best of those results for them, and left the figure at 89.7%, 3.9 points higher than before the match.

For Anderlecht the question was the chance to finish in the top four, 19.3% going in: 26.5% after a win, 18.9% after a draw, 16.0% after a defeat. The defeat was the worst of those results for them, and left the figure at 16.0%, 3.3 points lower than before the match.

Read from our Jupiler Pro League season simulation as it stood before this match (10,000 runs), counting this result alone. Every result since then has moved the table again, so today's figure is on the competition page.
