Saturday, 7 Nov 2026: A Broad Range of Prediction Outcomes
Yesterday’s Results review covers 332 football predictions, providing a substantial sample for evaluating the day’s forecasting performance. The 1X2 market delivered 177 correct picks from 332, representing an accuracy of 53%. Over/Under was the strongest category, reaching 189 correct selections and a 57% success rate, while BTTS also produced a positive return with 182 correct predictions, or 55%.
Across the three markets, the results show a balanced but imperfect day. Over/Under led the performance table by four percentage points over BTTS and four points ahead of 1X2, although none of the categories reached a majority above 60%. The figures indicate room for improvement while also confirming that the prediction approach generated useful results across a wide range of fixtures. Overall, the review highlights a productive day of forecasting, with all three markets delivering accuracy rates above 50%.
Prediction Accuracy: A Positive Return Across All Markets
Across 332 matches, the predictions delivered correct results in 53% of 1X2 selections, 57% of Over/Under selections and 55% of BTTS selections. These figures show that the highest-confidence picks performed best in the Over/Under market, where 189 of 332 predictions landed successfully. The 1X2 record was the weakest of the three at 177 correct outcomes, while 182 BTTS picks were right. Even so, every market remained above the halfway mark, indicating a consistently useful rather than erratic record.
Results should still be viewed honestly. Winning 177 times from 332 attempts means 155 1X2 predictions were incorrect, while the Over/Under and BTTS markets each missed 143 selections. The modest margins between the three success rates also show that confidence labels did not create a decisive separation between markets. A higher-confidence pick may carry more conviction, but it does not guarantee a successful outcome.
Overall, the review records a 53% success rate for 1X2, 57% for Over/Under and 55% for BTTS over 332 matches. That is a credible positive record, especially for selected football markets where short prices and unpredictable match events can make even small edges difficult to preserve. The figures support confidence in the process while also leaving clear room for improvement, particularly in 1X2 forecasting where fewer than three in five selections were correct.
Best Prediction Calls
The Fulham 1-1 Newcastle selection was recorded as correct at 48%, making it the most measured of the five successful calls. Its strength was the willingness to identify a result without overstating conviction: this was the lowest confidence percentage in the group, yet it still landed. Arsenal offered a sharper contrast. The 83% home-win prediction for the 1-0 victory over Hull City was the most confident call in the set, and the exact score provided strong validation through both the winning result and a one-goal margin with no Hull City goal.
Two FA Cup 1/128-finals selections also proved effective. Colchester’s 71% home-win call matched the 1-0 scoreline against Worcester City, pairing a clear directional prediction with a controlled, one-goal margin. Bradford’s 74% call was even more emphatic, as the 7-0 result against Marine turned a confident selection into the largest winning margin among these five correct predictions. Both were handled as competitive tournament fixtures in the appropriate competition and round, with no away-at-home interpretation imposed.
Chesterfield completed the group with a 63% home-win prediction for the 4-3 victory over Yeovil Town. That call required separating the teams in a seven-goal contest, and the narrow one-goal margin made the prediction more exact than simply identifying the winner. Across the full set, the strongest feature was the combination of varied confidence levels and accurate differentiation: Arsenal delivered the highest conviction, Bradford the largest margin, Colchester a solid one-goal call, Chesterfield a high-scoring contest, and Fulham a successful lower-confidence selection.
Our Biggest Prediction Misses
Our largest collective failure came from overconfidence in the underdog. Huddersfield’s 2-1 defeat by Exeter City overturned a 69% Home Win prediction, while Ironi Tiberias’ 1-1 draw with Beitar Jerusalem was even less aligned with our 71% Away Win selection. These were not narrow disagreements with the results: both outcomes directly contradicted our strongest forecast. With no match-event or performance data supplied, the honest conclusion is that our probabilities overstated the reliability of the factors behind each selection.
Watford’s 0-0 draw with Middlesbrough was the third major upset in this group, invalidating a 65% Away Win prediction. A goalless result required Middlesbrough’s attacking assumptions to break down, and our forecast did not account for that possibility with enough weight. Cagliari’s 1-0 win over Frosinone similarly overturned a 44% Away Win call. Although this was the lowest-confidence miss listed, it still shows that a strong predicted advantage can disappear when a team fails to deliver at the level implied by the forecast.
VfB Stuttgart’s 1-0 win over Werder Bremen completed the run of incorrect picks by defeating a 52% Home Win prediction. Across all five matches, the common problem was not merely that individual results went against us; it was that our stated probabilities placed too much weight on the projected favorite and too little on uncertainty. The main corrective lesson is clear: future selections need better calibration, including greater caution when confidence exceeds 50%, rather than treating the predicted favorite as the most likely single outcome regardless of the possible alternatives.
