Recent form (most recent last): Laval L-W; RED Star FC 93 W-D.
The model expects goals
Under the hood the model expects 1.96 goals for Laval and 2.80 for RED Star FC 93. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

That points to 85% for over two and a half goals and 81% for both teams to score.
The three most likely scorelines are 1-2 (7%), 2-2 (6%), 1-3 (6%).
