Two sides the ratings cannot separate

Pogon Szczecin carry a model rating of 6.63 against 6.52 for Motor Lublin. 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.

Recent form (most recent last): Pogon Szczecin L-W; Motor Lublin D-L.

The model expects goals

Under the hood the model expects 2.23 goals for Pogon Szczecin and 1.32 for Motor Lublin. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Pogon Szczecin rate 0.78 in attack and 1.21 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Motor Lublin rate 0.78 and 1.51.

That points to 69% for over two and a half goals and 66% for both teams to score.

The three most likely scorelines are 2-1 (9%), 1-1 (9%), 2-0 (7%).
