Austin vs Seattle Sounders Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.28 expected goals for Austin and 1.25 for Seattle Sounders, a combined total of 2.53.

Goals markets follow the same shape: 46% for over 2.5 goals and 51% for both teams to score, with 1–1 the single most likely scoreline at 13%.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Home/Draw, at 64.0%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 51% and over 2.5 goals at 46%.

A 64% 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.
