The two sides

Feyenoord carry a model rating of 6.93 against 6.5 for GO Ahead Eagles. 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): Feyenoord W; GO Ahead Eagles W.

The model expects goals

Under the hood the model expects 2.91 goals for Feyenoord and 0.91 for GO Ahead Eagles. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Feyenoord rate 1.07 in attack and 0.92 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; GO Ahead Eagles rate 0.71 and 1.44.

That points to 73% for over two and a half goals and 57% for both teams to score.

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

Where the model differs from the table

The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour GO Ahead Eagles, while our numbers lean the other way. The model weights recent expected goals rather than results already banked, so it moves before the table does.
