    Prediction conclusion

    The model's leading selection is Home/Draw, at 72.1%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

    It puts both teams scoring at 35% and over 2.5 goals at 27%.

    A 72% 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.
