Boise vs NY Cosmos Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 2.24 expected goals for Boise and 1.11 for NY Cosmos, a combined total of 3.35. That distribution gives Boise the largest share of the 1X2 market at 63%, with the draw at 20%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 65% for over 2.5 goals and 60% for both teams to score, with 2–1 the single most likely scoreline at 10%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 63% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Boise win, at 62.7%. Its single most likely scoreline is 2–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 60% and over 2.5 goals at 65%.

A 63% 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.
