The two sides

Leyton Orient carry a model rating of 6.26 against 6.42 for Plymouth. 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.

What the model expects

Under the hood the model expects 1.49 goals for Leyton Orient and 1.66 for Plymouth. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Leyton Orient rate 0.56 in attack and 1.83 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Plymouth rate 0.73 and 1.75.

The rest of the season

Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Leyton Orient a 0.6% chance of the title and Plymouth 31.1%, from 10000 simulated seasons.

How this was produced

Publicly tracked record so far: 1314 correct results out of 2813 settled predictions (47%), with 270 exact scorelines (10%). That log is updated automatically after every match and is never edited.

Full method: how the model works.

From the first whistle this page keeps going: the win probabilities at the top are recalculated as the match plays out, reading the score, the clock and any sendings-off. The same model, asked how many goals are left rather than how many there will be.
