The two sides

Real Betis carry a model rating of 6.9 against 7.06 for Real Madrid. 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 1.81 goals for Real Betis and 1.89 for Real Madrid. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Real Betis rate 1.17 in attack and 1.07 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Real Madrid rate 1.26 and 0.82.

That points to 71% for over two and a half goals and 71% for both teams to score.

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