The two sides

Al Wahda FC carry a model rating of 6.45 against 6.72 for Al Ain. 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 1.07 goals for Al Wahda FC and 1.68 for Al Ain. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Al Wahda FC rate 0.58 in attack and 1.32 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Al Ain rate 0.84 and 1.10.

The rest of the season

Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Al Wahda FC a 1.5% chance of the title and Al Ain 26.2%, from 10,000 simulated seasons.

How this was produced

Publicly tracked record so far: 2,309 correct results out of 4,819 settled predictions (48%), with 476 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.

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 Al Ain the highest probability at 48%, based on each side's rolling attack and defence ratings estimated from recent match data. The model projects 1.07 expected goals for Al Wahda FC against 1.68 for Al Ain. Al Wahda FC's attack/defence rating is 0.58/1.32 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 0.84/1.1 for Al Ain.

How the model reaches 48% for Al Ain to win

Start from two average sides on neutral ground: 37% for Al Ain to win. Then home advantage takes away 3 points, Al Wahda FC's ratings add 22 points and Al Ain's ratings take away 8 points, which lands on the published 48%.

  1. Two average sides, neutral ground37%
  2. Home advantage34%−3
  3. Al Wahda FC's ratings56%+22
  4. Al Ain's ratings48%−8

Each step adds one input to the step before. In another order the steps would differ in size; the end point would not.

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.
