Top 3 by league goals this season. Player availability is not part of the model — injuries and suspensions are a planned improvement.

Two sides the ratings cannot separate

Dundee carry a model rating of 6.26 against 6.21 for Hibernian. 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): Dundee L-W; Hibernian L-W.

What the model expects

Under the hood the model expects 1.76 goals for Dundee and 1.20 for Hibernian. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Dundee rate 0.52 in attack and 1.71 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Hibernian rate 0.50 and 1.79.

That points to 57% for over two and a half goals and 58% for both teams to score.

The three most likely scorelines are 1-1 (12%), 2-1 (10%), 1-0 (9%).
