Union Omaha vs NY Cosmos Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Goals markets follow the same shape: 63% for over 2.5 goals and 59% for both teams to score, with 2–1 the single most likely scoreline at 10%.

    Prediction conclusion

    The model's leading selection is Union Omaha win, at 60.2%. Its single most likely scoreline is 2–1.

    It puts both teams scoring at 59% and over 2.5 goals at 63%.

    A 60% 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.
