Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Dender win, at 61.9%. Its single most likely scoreline is 0–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 52% and over 2.5 goals at 55%.

A 62% 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.
