6 matches is a small sample — these averages are noisy and should not be read as a tendency.
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 40–45% in the past, 1,778 of 3,998 predictions were correct (44.5%). Accuracy record →

The measurements our data provider sent for this match. A row that was not measured shows “—”; writing 0 into an empty field would claim we measured it and found none.
When the model has said 55–60% in the past, 2,566 of 4,458 predictions were correct (57.6%). 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 (23.5%).
The 3+ goals prediction is not published for this match.
The model gives a probability below the baseline (56.7%). In backtesting the model's edge in the "fewer goals" direction could not be confirmed; we don't publish an unconfirmed prediction.
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: Bodo/Glimt score 62% more than the league's average team — one of the sharpest attacks in the league.
Opponent's defence: Sporting CP concede 45% below the league average — a defence that seriously brakes even a strong attack.
Result: A strong attack meets a strong defence. The two largely cancel and the expectation drops to 1.33 goals — markedly lower than the attack alone would promise.
Attack: Sporting CP score 66% more than the league's average team — one of the sharpest attacks in the league.
Opponent's defence: Bodo/Glimt concede 30% below the league average — a defence that seriously brakes even a strong attack.
Result: A strong attack meets a strong defence. The two largely cancel and the expectation drops to 1.63 goals — markedly lower than the attack alone would promise.
A single scoreline is always less likely than an outcome: “home win” is the sum of 1-0, 2-0, 2-1 and dozens more. So the most likely single score can be a draw while the most likely outcome is a home win; the two do not contradict each other.
Ratings were computed from 2102 matches played in this league before kick-off; the team with fewer has 120 matches. No data from after the match was used. The model's track record is published unfiltered.
