Where the two sides stand. Full tables
Two sides the ratings cannot separate
Milford FC carry a model rating of 6.49 against 6.36 for Kruger United. 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.

The model expects goals
Under the hood the model expects 2.77 goals for Milford FC and 1.37 for Kruger United. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Milford FC rate 0.50 in attack and 1.11 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Kruger United rate 0.88 and 2.93.
That points to 78% for over two and a half goals and 70% for both teams to score.
The three most likely scorelines are 2-1 (8%), 3-1 (8%), 1-1 (6%).
Where the model differs from the table
The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour Kruger United, 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.
