Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Newcastle United W win, at 61.7%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 53% and over 2.5 goals at 57%.

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.
