Prediction conclusion
The model's leading selection is Bolton Wanderers Res. win, at 84.3%. Its single most likely scoreline is 3–0.
It puts both teams scoring at 54% and over 2.5 goals at 78%.
A 84% 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.
