Written before kick-off and left as it stood — the reading below is the model's pre-match case, not a view formed after the result.

Two sides the ratings cannot separate

Le Havre carry a model rating of 6.76 against 6.8 for Angers. 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.

What the model expects

Under the hood the model expects 1.30 goals for Le Havre and 1.05 for Angers. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Le Havre rate 0.81 in attack and 0.98 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Angers rate 0.89 and 0.99.

Where the model differs from the table

The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour Angers, 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: 1151 correct results out of 2437 settled predictions (47%), with 230 exact scorelines (9%). That log is updated automatically after every match and is never edited.
