Each cell is one exact result, shaded against the likeliest one; figures below 1% are left blank rather than rounded to zero. Blue cells are Lokomotiv wins, grey are draws, red are Krylia Sovetov wins — the three shaded areas ARE the 1/X/2 split above, which is the sum of the cells in each. The most likely scoreline is simply the darkest cell inside whichever area the model favours.

Has the model earned this number?

It puts Lokomotiv at 40% here. Across 2437 settled matches, 1092 forecasts have landed in the 40–50% band; those outcomes actually happened 44.3% of the time, against an average forecast of 43.8%. In this range the two line up, so the figure above can be read literally.

Every settled prediction on this site is scored against an uninformed baseline, band by band, and published whether or not it flatters the model — see the full record.

Leading scorers: Lokomotiv and Krylia Sovetov

Lokomotiv

No player in Premier League's leading scorers — 7 league goals as a side.

Top 3 by league goals this season. Player availability is not part of the model — injuries and suspensions are a planned improvement.

Two sides the ratings cannot separate

Lokomotiv carry a model rating of 6.22 against 6.27 for Krylia Sovetov. 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 1.64 goals for Lokomotiv and 1.32 for Krylia Sovetov. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Lokomotiv rate 0.48 in attack and 1.71 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Krylia Sovetov rate 0.64 and 2.10.

Where the model differs from the table

The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour Krylia Sovetov, 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.

Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Lokomotiv a 0.2% chance of the title and Krylia Sovetov 0.5%, from 10000 simulated seasons.

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.

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.
