Kiyovu Sports vs Gorilla Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Goals markets follow the same shape: 8% for over 2.5 goals and 15% for both teams to score, with 0–0 the single most likely scoreline at 37%.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Draw, at 46.6%. Its single most likely scoreline is 0–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 15% and over 2.5 goals at 8%.

A 47% 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.
