The two sides
MSV Duisburg carry a model rating of 6.43 against 6.23 for Hoffenheim II. 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.
What the model expects

MSV Duisburg rate 0.65 in attack and 1.52 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Hoffenheim II rate 0.57 and 1.97.

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.
