FC Dallas vs Austin Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.86 expected goals for FC Dallas and 1.04 for Austin, a combined total of 2.90.

Goals markets follow the same shape: 55% for over 2.5 goals and 55% for both teams to score, with 1–1 the single most likely scoreline at 11%.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is FC Dallas win, at 56.5%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 55% and over 2.5 goals at 55%.

A 57% 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.
