Prediction conclusion
The model's leading selection is Portugal U21 win, at 97.3%. Its single most likely scoreline is 4–0.
It puts both teams scoring at 21% and over 2.5 goals at 81%.
A 97% 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.
