      Prediction conclusion

      The model's leading selection is North Korea U17 W win, at 52.4%. Its single most likely scoreline is 2–2.

      It puts both teams scoring at 81% and over 2.5 goals at 85%.

      A 52% 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.
