Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is 1899 Hoffenheim win, at 48.7%. Its single most likely scoreline is 2–2.

It puts both teams scoring at 82% and over 2.5 goals at 86%.

A 49% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
