๐Ÿ“Š Match recap and data context

Leyton Orient fell to Sheffield Wednesday 1-2 at home in League One, a result that cost our model. We had backed Orient at 55% probability to win; they could not deliver. Orient's recent form showed one win in five matches, while Wednesday arrived in poor shape with four losses in their last five outings. The visitors nonetheless found the net twice to claim the points on the road. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
