Leicester v Blackburn Rovers
How the SharpXI model rated this Championship fixture — every call it made on shots, cards and fouls, set against what actually happened on the day.
Before Leicester lost to Blackburn Rovers 0–2, the SharpXI model made 14 confident calls on the player markets and 9 landed — the strongest being Victor Kristiansen for 1+ tackles (95%, had 4).

Player markets — the model's calls

Frequently asked
How did the SharpXI model do on Leicester v Blackburn Rovers?
9 of its 14 most-confident calls landed. The board on this page lists every one with the model's pre-kickoff probability next to what actually happened, hits and misses in the same table.
What did the model get wrong on Leicester v Blackburn Rovers?
The most confident call it got wrong was Ricardo Pereira at 91% for tackles — shown in the same table as the hits, marked with a cross. A record that hides its misses isn't a record, so we don't.
Are these probabilities hindsight?
No. Each one is the number the model produced from data available before kick-off, using the same settings as every other fixture on the site — nothing was refitted after the result. That is the only way a per-match report means anything.
Does one match tell you if the model is any good in the Championship?
No, and we'd rather say so. A single fixture is a handful of calls and mostly noise; the season-long, market-by-market record — including the markets that fail to beat a naive guess — is on the track record page.
