The two sides
Mamelodi Sundowns carry a model rating of 6.73 against 6.52 for Amazulu. 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.
Recent form (most recent last): Mamelodi Sundowns W; Amazulu W.
The model expects goals
Under the hood the model expects 3.07 goals for Mamelodi Sundowns and 1.52 for Amazulu. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Mamelodi Sundowns rate 1.04 in attack and 1.37 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Amazulu rate 0.79 and 1.56.
That points to 83% for over two and a half goals and 75% for both teams to score.
The three most likely scorelines are 3-1 (7%), 2-1 (7%), 4-1 (6%).
