Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Mexico U20 W win, at 57.6%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–2.

It puts both teams scoring at 75% and over 2.5 goals at 80%.

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.
