📊 Match recap and data context
Stockport County fell to Port Vale 1-2 at home in League One, a result that cost our model. We had backed Stockport at 65 percent probability for the win, but the visitors held firm to claim three points. Stockport's recent form had looked solid with one win and a draw in their last five, yet they could not convert that momentum. Port Vale, despite inconsistency on the road, proved clinical when it mattered. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
