Two sides the ratings cannot separate

Gangwon FC carry a model rating of 6.56 against 6.57 for Jeonbuk Motors. 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.

The model expects a tight, low-scoring game

Under the hood the model expects 1.08 goals for Gangwon FC and 1.02 for Jeonbuk Motors. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Gangwon FC rate 0.62 in attack and 1.15 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Jeonbuk Motors rate 0.70 and 1.23.

Where the model differs from the table

The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour Jeonbuk Motors, 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.

How this was produced

Publicly tracked record so far: 2,376 correct results out of 4,950 settled predictions (48%), with 492 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 Gangwon FC the highest probability at 35%, based on each side's rolling attack and defence ratings estimated from recent match data. The model projects 1.08 expected goals for Gangwon FC against 1.02 for Jeonbuk Motors. Gangwon FC's attack/defence rating is 0.62/1.15 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 0.7/1.23 for Jeonbuk Motors.

How the model reaches 35% for Gangwon FC to win

Start from two average sides on neutral ground: 36% for Gangwon FC to win. Then home advantage adds 3 points, Gangwon FC's ratings take away 15 points and Jeonbuk Motors's ratings add 11 points, which lands on the published 35%.

  1. Two average sides, neutral ground36%
  2. Home advantage39%+3
  3. Gangwon FC's ratings24%−15
  4. Jeonbuk Motors's ratings35%+11

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.

The colour is how strong the opponent is, from easier to harder as on the scale above: its model rating ranked among the teams of that competition, in fifths, so bright red is the top fifth whoever is playing it. The win figure is this side's own chance in that match, which is where venue and its own level come in.
