Has the model earned this number?

It puts Napoli at 61% here. Across 3,660 settled matches (as of 14 October 2026), 872 forecasts have landed in the 50–65% band; those outcomes actually happened 55.5% of the time, against an average forecast of 55.5%. 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.

Up to 5 matches before kick-off, most recent first. The model rates each side on its goals over this season and last, adjusted for the opposition, rather than on these results alone, so read them as context — how the ratings are built.

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

The two sides

Monza carry a model rating of 6.72 against 7.17 for Napoli. 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 1.02 goals for Monza and 2.32 for Napoli. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Monza rate 1.05 in attack and 1.40 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Napoli rate 1.32 and 0.70.

The rest of the season

Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Monza a 0% chance of the title and Napoli 4.3%, from 10,000 simulated seasons.

How this was produced

Publicly tracked record so far: 1,776 correct results out of 3,725 settled predictions (48%), with 376 exact scorelines (10%). 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.

Statistical estimate, not betting advice This prediction is generated from a statistical model for entertainment and informational purposes only. It does not guarantee any outcome and should not be used as the basis for placing a bet.

Team comparison

Bars show each side's share of the two-team total, based on the model's attack/defence ratings and expected goals for this fixture.

Why the model favours this side

The model gives Napoli the highest probability at 61%, based on each side's rolling attack and defence ratings estimated from recent match data. The model projects 1.02 expected goals for Monza against 2.32 for Napoli. Monza's attack/defence rating is 1.05/1.4 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 1.32/0.7 for Napoli.

Monza are 15th after 6 Serie A matches (between 14th and 20th so far); Napoli are 6th after 6 (between 2nd and 10th). Rebuilt from the season's results after each side's matches (x-axis: that side's match number); ties split on goal difference, then goals scored.

Goals scored and conceded, by minute

All Serie A matches this season: Monza 6, Napoli 6.

Monza scored 022221
Napoli conceded 011201
Napoli scored 031212
Monza conceded 423312

Napoli score most often in the 16–30 minute window (3 goals); Monza have let in 2 there.

Each cell counts the league goals that went in during that 15-minute window. Each side's goals sit above the goals its opponent has let in over the same minutes; the darker the cell, the more goals in that window. Stoppage time counts in the last window of its half. Source: API-Football season statistics, refreshed after each league match; own goals are not always counted on the same side as in the table, so a row can be a goal off it.

Each side's next matches on our board after this one. The colour is how strong the opponent is, from easier to harder as on the scale above: its model rating ranked among the teams of that competition, in fifths, so bright red is the top fifth whoever is playing it. The win figure is this side's own chance in that match, which is where venue and its own level come in. A match already on our board links to its own prediction; the rest follow as their week comes up.
