Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Linare win, at 57.5%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–2.

It puts both teams scoring at 62% and over 2.5 goals at 65%.

A 58% 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.
