    Prediction conclusion

    The model's leading selection is Türkiye U20 win, at 70.4%. Its single most likely scoreline is 2–0.

    It puts both teams scoring at 56% and over 2.5 goals at 66%.

    A 70% 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.
