Hypothesis

Discovery hint: *xG gap 0.23, shots 31, big chances 4, shapes ['4-2-3-1', '4-2-3-1']*

Discovery vs current state: PARTIALLY_SUPPORTED.

Current hypothesis: *The available totals do not yet establish a clear threat-versus-score story for Newcastle United vs Liverpool.*

Final assessment: PARTIALLY_SUPPORTED. Score 2-1; xG 1.01–1.24.

SUPPORTED. Current score is the publication state — Score 2-1 from the fresh snapshot, not the Discovery scan.

PARTIALLY_SUPPORTED. Discovery score is still the match state — Discovery scan score 2-1; snapshot score 2-1.

PARTIALLY_SUPPORTED. One side has a material xG advantage — xG 1.01–1.24; gap 0.22999999999999998.

SUPPORTED. The higher-xG side also leads shots and box touches — Shots 11.0–20.0; box touches 11.0–25.0.

PARTIALLY_SUPPORTED. The chance gap is concentrated in one half — First-half xG 0.25–0.41; second-half xG 0.76–0.83.

Observation is the score and the table. Calculation is the xG gap. Interpretation is labelled above. No causal claim is made without stronger evidence.

What would change it

If the score moves, the hypothesis must be re-fetched and re-evaluated before the next update. The same publication key is used.
