Goals markets follow the same shape: 27% for over 2.5 goals and 34% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 18%.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Home/Draw, at 76.8%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 34% and over 2.5 goals at 27%.

A 77% 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.
