A clear gap in the ratings

Akron carry a model rating of 5.69 against 6.48 for CSKA Moscow. 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.

Recent form (most recent last): Akron L-L-D; CSKA Moscow W-D-D.

The model expects goals

Under the hood the model expects 0.93 goals for Akron and 3.28 for CSKA Moscow. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Akron rate 0.30 in attack and 3.04 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; CSKA Moscow rate 0.77 and 1.64.

That points to 79% for over two and a half goals and 58% for both teams to score.

The three most likely scorelines are 0-3 (9%), 1-3 (8%), 0-2 (8%).
