Bosnia-H. — Qatar 3:1: Three Goals The Model Never Saw

An 88% anomaly score is one of the highest marks of the round, and it was earned honestly: Bosnia-Herzegovina beat Qatar 3:1 while creating less. xG 0.68 against 0.77 with three scored is a reversal in its purest form.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the head coach of the Qatar national team?

Per the most recently analyzed match (Qatar — Switzerland) — Julen Lopetegui.

How many players are in the Qatar national team's current squad?

26 players: goalkeepers — 3, defenders — 8, midfielders — 6, attackers — 9.

How often do Qatar's match results diverge from the xG-expected outcome?

Bravsen has analyzed 3 matches — average Crime Index 72, with 2 scoring 60+ (the threshold for an anomalous gap between the result and the xG model).

A 1-3 road loss to Bosnia and Herzegovina carries a Crime Index of 88% — one of the highest figures on the entire site. It's Qatar's single most anomalous covered match out of 3 reviewed: by chance quality, the visitors appear to have deserved an entirely different result.

The team's average Crime Index also runs well above typical

A 72% average across 3 matches is among the higher figures for a national team on this site, though below the Bosnia match's peak value: even setting that specific loss aside, the team already looks more volatile than the typical tournament entrant.

Finishing lines up almost exactly with the model

Across the 3 matches with calculated xG, Qatar generated 1.59 expected goals and scored 2 — a small, statistically insignificant positive gap. The team's volatility is driven less by a finishing problem than by sharp swings in individual matches, including the Bosnia loss.
