๐Ÿ“Š Match recap and data context

Bristol City fell to Walsall 0-1 at Ashton Gate in the Carabao Cup. Our model backed Walsall to win at 41 percent probability, and the pick landed. The hosts, unbeaten in their last five with two wins and two draws, failed to break through despite Walsall's recent form showing just one win in five matches. The absence of goals proved decisive in a cup tie where neither side found the net, departing from the high-scoring pattern both teams had displayed in their recent outings. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
