Expected goals: Genoa 0.82, AC Milan 1.62.

Both teams to score: 45%. Over 2.5 goals: 44%, under 2.5: 56%.

Model confidence: High — calls at this level have come off 59% of the time, over 1,563 settled matches.

How the model rates them now

Attack and defence are multipliers on an average side: above 1.00 in attack means the club scores more than the average team in its competition, and below 1.00 in defence means it concedes fewer. The methodology sets out how they are derived, including where the model is known to be wrong.

Top 3 by league goals this season. Player availability is not part of the model — injuries and suspensions are a planned improvement.

The two sides

Genoa carry a model rating of 6.73 against 7.11 for AC Milan. The scale is anchored so that an average side in one of Europe's big five leagues sits at 6.85, and it is adjusted for the strength of each team's league, so the two numbers are comparable even across borders.

What the model expects

Under the hood the model expects 0.82 goals for Genoa and 1.62 for AC Milan. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Genoa rate 0.78 in attack and 1.01 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; AC Milan rate 1.27 and 0.75.

The rest of the season

Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Genoa a 0% chance of the title and AC Milan 4.4%, from 10,000 simulated seasons.

How this was produced

Publicly tracked record so far: 2,299 correct results out of 4,800 settled predictions (48%), with 474 exact scorelines (10%). That log is updated automatically after every match and is never edited.

Full method: how the model works.

Once the match starts, the win probabilities at the top update live from the score, the clock and any sendings-off.

Statistical estimate, not betting advice This prediction is generated from a statistical model for entertainment and informational purposes only. It does not guarantee any outcome and should not be used as the basis for placing a bet.

Team comparison

Bars show each side's share of the two-team total, based on the model's attack/defence ratings and expected goals for this fixture.

Why the model favours this side

The model gives AC Milan the highest probability at 52%, based on each side's rolling attack and defence ratings estimated from recent match data. The model projects 0.82 expected goals for Genoa against 1.62 for AC Milan. Genoa's attack/defence rating is 0.78/1.01 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 1.27/0.75 for AC Milan.

How the model reaches 52% for AC Milan to win

Start from two average sides on neutral ground: 36% for AC Milan to win. Then home advantage takes away 3 points, Genoa's ratings add 6 points and AC Milan's ratings add 13 points, which lands on the published 52%.

  1. Two average sides, neutral ground36%
  2. Home advantage33%−3
  3. Genoa's ratings39%+6
  4. AC Milan's ratings52%+13

Each step adds one input to the step before. In another order the steps would differ in size; the end point would not.

Genoa are 17th after 7 Serie A matches (between 16th and 19th so far); AC Milan are 5th after 7 (between 1st and 5th). Rebuilt from the season's results after each side's matches (x-axis: that side's match number); ties split on goal difference, then goals scored.

Goals scored and conceded, by minute

AC Milan score most often in the 61–75 minute window (9 goals); Genoa have let in 1 there.

Each cell counts the league goals that went in during that 15-minute window. Each side's goals sit above the goals its opponent has let in over the same minutes; the darker the cell, the more goals in that window. Stoppage time counts in the last window of its half.

The colour is how strong the opponent is, from easier to harder as on the scale above: its model rating ranked among the teams of that competition, in fifths, so bright red is the top fifth whoever is playing it. The win figure is this side's own chance in that match, which is where venue and its own level come in.
