Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is CSKA Moscow win, at 45.7%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 34% and over 2.5 goals at 28%.

A 46% 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.
