The two sides

Monaco carry a model rating of 6.77 against 6.95 for Marseille. 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.

The model expects goals

Under the hood the model expects 1.73 goals for Monaco and 1.82 for Marseille. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Monaco rate 0.84 in attack and 1.00 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Marseille rate 1.30 and 1.09.

That points to 69% for over two and a half goals and 69% for both teams to score.

The three most likely scorelines are 1-1 (9%), 1-2 (8%), 2-1 (8%).
