Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is West Ham United U21 win, at 59.4%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–2.

It puts both teams scoring at 71% and over 2.5 goals at 76%.

A 59% 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.
