Written before kick-off and left as it stood — the reading below is the model's pre-match case, not a view formed after the result.
Two sides the ratings cannot separate
Atletico Tucuman carry a model rating of 6.62 against 6.72 for River Plate. 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.
What the model expects
Under the hood the model expects 1.39 goals for Atletico Tucuman and 1.27 for River Plate. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Atletico Tucuman rate 0.70 in attack and 1.13 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; River Plate rate 0.93 and 1.22.
