The two sides
Al Shahaniya carry a model rating of 6.15 against 6.34 for Al Ahli Doha. 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.
The model expects goals
Under the hood the model expects 1.46 goals for Al Shahaniya and 2.11 for Al Ahli Doha. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Al Shahaniya rate 0.48 in attack and 1.93 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Al Ahli Doha rate 0.62 and 1.72.
How this was produced
Publicly tracked record so far: 2,402 correct results out of 4,996 settled predictions (48%), with 499 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.
