Two sides the ratings cannot separate
Millonarios carry a model rating of 6.64 against 6.53 for Once Caldas. 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 1.56 goals for Millonarios and 0.87 for Once Caldas. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Millonarios rate 0.80 in attack and 1.22 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Once Caldas rate 0.70 and 1.34.
The rest of the season
Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Millonarios a 0.2% chance of the title and Once Caldas 0%, from 10,000 simulated seasons.
