From our Ligue 1 season simulation: the rest of the season played out 10,000 times by the same model as the prediction above. Each figure is that side's chance once this match ends in a win, a draw or a defeat for it, with every other match still left to the model. Positions in the table, not competition rules: what a place is worth differs from league to league.

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.
Leading scorers: Marseille and Le Havre
Marseille
GoalsAssists

Le Havre
No player in Ligue 1's leading scorers — 4 league goals as a side.
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
Marseille carry a model rating of 6.94 against 6.68 for Le Havre. 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 1.83 goals for Marseille and 0.84 for Le Havre. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Marseille rate 1.12 in attack and 0.93 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Le Havre rate 0.66 and 0.97.
The rest of the season
Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Marseille a 2% chance of the title and Le Havre 0%, from 10,000 simulated seasons.
How this was produced
Publicly tracked record so far: 1,771 correct results out of 3,709 settled predictions (48%), with 376 exact scorelines (10%). That log is updated automatically after every match and is never edited.
Full method: how the model works.
From the first whistle this page keeps going: the win probabilities at the top are recalculated as the match plays out, reading the score, the clock and any sendings-off. The same model, asked how many goals are left rather than how many there will be.
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 Marseille the highest probability at 56%, based on each side's rolling attack and defence ratings estimated from recent match data. The model projects 1.83 expected goals for Marseille against 0.84 for Le Havre. Marseille's attack/defence rating is 1.12/0.93 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 0.66/0.97 for Le Havre.

Position by match
MarseilleLe Havre
Marseille are 13th after 6 Ligue 1 matches (between 1st and 17th so far); Le Havre are 18th after 6 (between 14th and 18th). 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
All Ligue 1 matches this season: Marseille 6, Le Havre 6.
Marseille score most often in the 46–60 minute window (3 goals); Le Havre have let in 3 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. Source: API-Football season statistics, refreshed after each league match; own goals are not always counted on the same side as in the table, so a row can be a goal off it. Context, not a prediction.

Each side's next matches on our board after this one. 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. A match already on our board links to its own prediction; the rest follow as their week comes up.
