    Prediction conclusion

    The model's leading selection is Mexico U20 W win, at 68.1%. Its single most likely scoreline is 3–1.

    It puts both teams scoring at 76% and over 2.5 goals at 85%.

    A 68% 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.
