Libya vs Eswatini Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.81 expected goals for Libya and 0.65 for Eswatini, a combined total of 2.46. That distribution gives Libya the largest share of the 1X2 market at 65%, with the draw at 22%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 45% for over 2.5 goals and 40% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 16%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 65% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

    Prediction conclusion

    The model's leading selection is Libya win, at 65.3%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

    It puts both teams scoring at 40% and over 2.5 goals at 45%.

    A 65% 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.
