    Prediction conclusion

    The model's leading selection is Sutherland Sharks U20 win, at 88.8%. Its single most likely scoreline is 4–0.

    It puts both teams scoring at 57% and over 2.5 goals at 85%.

    A 89% 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.
