Numbers Never Lie (Except When They Do)

Analyzing Yesterday's Mixed Results: A Data Scientist's Take on Football Predictions

Data Science Meets Football Chaos

My algorithm promised a Palmeiras walkover - instead we got nail-biter football! At least Messi’s nap time prediction was spot on (take that, sports journalists).

When xG Betrays You That Seattle-Atletico ‘draw or loss’ hedge? Classic model cowardice. My code needs therapy after underestimating Spanish parking-the-bus tactics.

Pro tip: Treat football predictions like weather forecasts - bring an umbrella even if it’s 80% sunny. Who’s ready to roast today’s probabilities? #MathIsHard

Werner? More Like 'Worst-er'

Why Liverpool Would Be Better Off Without Werner as Their Core – A Data-Driven Take

Why Werner’s Clutch Moment Is Just Data Dreams

Let’s run the numbers: 9 UCL games, 6 goals—yes, but only one was in knockout stages where it actually mattered.

Meanwhile, Alvarez played through fire at the World Cup and UCL semis—xG above 1.2 when stakes were sky-high.

Data doesn’t care about hype or Instagram reels. It sees pressure—and Wirtz? He chokes like a Wi-Fi signal in an underground tunnel.

His decision accuracy drops 42% late-game. Alvarez? Only an 8% dip—with better passes.

So yeah… let’s check the shot chart again.

You’re welcome for the math lesson.
