Season projection

Every one of the 252 matches this phase has left, played out 10,000 times by the same model that makes our match predictions — but rating each side on its whole season rather than its last six games, since one hot run should not decide a title race. The figures are final positions, not qualification or relegation: those depend on each country's rules and playoffs. A statistical estimate, not betting advice. These figures cover the regular season only. The regular season is not the end of the competition: Promotion - Playoffs, Final follow it, and no projection here covers them. Movement is measured against 2026-09-14, the last update whose numbers changed.
