Cagliari vs Inter Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 0.81 expected goals for Cagliari and 1.99 for Inter, a combined total of 2.80. That distribution gives Inter the largest share of the 1X2 market at 65%, with the draw at 21%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 53% for over 2.5 goals and 48% for both teams to score, with 0–1 the single most likely scoreline at 12%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 65% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Inter win, at 65.0%. Its single most likely scoreline is 0–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 48% and over 2.5 goals at 53%.

A 65% 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.
