Why the model favours this side

The model gives Leixoes the highest probability at 50%, based on each side's rolling attack and defence ratings estimated from recent match data. The model projects 2.17 expected goals for Leixoes against 1.44 for Chaves. Leixoes's attack/defence rating is 0.67/1.87 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 0.64/1.99 for Chaves.
