Cagliari vs Genoa Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.25 expected goals for Cagliari and 0.70 for Genoa, a combined total of 1.95.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Cagliari win, at 49.5%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 36% and over 2.5 goals at 31%.

A 50% 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.
