Prediction conclusion
The model's leading selection is Home/Draw, at 68.8%. Its single most likely scoreline is 0–0.
It puts both teams scoring at 32% and over 2.5 goals at 23%.
A 69% 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.
