Written before kick-off and left as it stood — the reading below is the model's pre-match case, not a view formed after the result.

Where the model differs from the table

The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour MVV (8th, with Vitesse 11th), while our numbers lean to Vitesse. Vitesse rate 0.52 in attack and 1.43 in defence, MVV 0.45 and 1.95 (lower is better in defence), so Vitesse have been the better side at both ends on recent expected goals, which the 2-point gap in the table does not yet show.

What this result changed

Before kick-off the season simulation gave MVV a 20.7% chance to finish in the bottom three: 14.4% after a win, 19.9% after a draw, 24.8% after a defeat. The win was the best of those results for them, and left the figure at 14.4%, 6.3 points lower than before the match.

For Vitesse the question was the chance to finish in the top eight, 52.8% going in: 60.0% after a win, 50.2% after a draw, 45.5% after a defeat. The defeat was the worst of those results for them, and left the figure at 45.5%, 7.3 points lower than before the match.

Read from our Eerste Divisie 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.
