    Head-to-head

    Head-to-head history is temporarily unavailable. The prediction is unaffected — it is built from current form, home and away performance, goals data and competition statistics.

    Prediction conclusion

    The model's leading selection is Home/Draw, at 65.5%. Its single most likely scoreline is 0–0.

    It puts both teams scoring at 40% and over 2.5 goals at 32%.

    A 66% 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.
