Riga vs Tukums Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 2.55 expected goals for Riga and 0.95 for Tukums, a combined total of 3.50.

Goals markets follow the same shape: 68% for over 2.5 goals and 57% for both teams to score, with 2–0 the single most likely scoreline at 10%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 72% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Riga win, at 71.9%. Its single most likely scoreline is 2–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 57% and over 2.5 goals at 68%.

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.
