Athletic Club MG

No player in Serie B's leading scorers — 40 league goals as a side.

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

Two sides the ratings cannot separate

Operario-PR carry a model rating of 6.33 against 6.34 for Athletic Club MG. 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 1.96 goals for Operario-PR and 1.50 for Athletic Club MG. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Operario-PR rate 0.67 in attack and 1.94 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Athletic Club MG rate 0.64 and 1.80.

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.
