France vs Spain Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.45 expected goals for France and 0.93 for Spain, a combined total of 2.38. That distribution gives France the largest share of the 1X2 market at 49%, with the draw at 27%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 42% for over 2.5 goals and 46% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 14%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 49% favourite still loses or draws roughly 51% of the time.
