Two sides the ratings cannot separate
Aarhus carry a model rating of 6.58 against 6.5 for Odense. 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.
A gap that small is inside the noise of the rating itself — treat the two as level.
Recent form (most recent last): Aarhus D-D; Odense L-W.
The model expects goals
Under the hood the model expects 1.97 goals for Aarhus and 1.24 for Odense. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Aarhus rate 0.72 in attack and 1.23 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Odense rate 0.72 and 1.45.
That points to 62% for over two and a half goals and 62% for both teams to score.
The three most likely scorelines are 1-1 (10%), 2-1 (10%), 2-0 (8%).
Where the model differs from the table
The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour Odense, while our numbers lean the other way. The model weights recent expected goals rather than results already banked, so it moves before the table does.
How this was produced
Publicly tracked record so far: 288 correct results out of 598 settled predictions (48%), with 58 exact scorelines (10%). That log is updated automatically after every match and is never edited.
