There's no card data for this referee from before this match yet. We don't invent an average; it will appear here once the data exists.
This is a prediction, not a guarantee; a probability is not a certainty.
These sentences are built by a fixed template; every number in them comes straight from the model's computation, none invented while the text was written.
When the model has said 65–70% in the past, 1,059 of 1,563 predictions were correct (67.8%). Accuracy record →
These three values add up to 200%, not 100% — and that is not a mistake. The options are not mutually exclusive; every outcome is counted in two of them. For the same reason 1X plus X2 exceeds 100% by exactly the probability of a draw (20.6%).
Expected goals comes out of a team's attack weighed against its opponent's defence. A strong attack is damped when it meets a strong defence — which is why comparing the ratings on their own is misleading.
Attack: Spain score 123% more than the league's average team — one of the sharpest attacks in the league.
Opponent's defence: Netherlands concede 37% below the league average — a defence that seriously brakes even a strong attack.
Attack: Netherlands score 95% more than the league's average team — one of the sharpest attacks in the league.
Opponent's defence: Spain concede 55% below the league average — a defence that seriously brakes even a strong attack.
