A clear gap in the ratings

Hapoel Tel Aviv carry a model rating of 6.21 against 6.95 for Atalanta. 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): Hapoel Tel Aviv W-D-W-L.

The model expects goals

Under the hood the model expects 0.89 goals for Hapoel Tel Aviv and 2.90 for Atalanta. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Hapoel Tel Aviv rate 0.53 in attack and 1.92 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Atalanta rate 1.08 and 0.89.

That points to 73% for over two and a half goals and 56% for both teams to score.

The three most likely scorelines are 0-2 (10%), 0-3 (9%), 1-2 (8%).
