Prediction conclusion
The model's leading selection is Northern Mariana Islands win, at 74.0%. Its single most likely scoreline is 4–2.
It puts both teams scoring at 83% and over 2.5 goals at 92%.
A 74% 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.
