The two sides

Sirius carry a model rating of 6.63 against 6.47 for Malmo FF. 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.

Recent form (most recent last): Sirius W-W-W-D-L; Malmo FF D-L-W-L-W.

The model expects goals

Under the hood the model expects 2.18 goals for Sirius and 1.17 for Malmo FF. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Sirius rate 0.85 in attack and 1.33 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Malmo FF rate 0.63 and 1.36.

That points to 65% for over two and a half goals and 62% for both teams to score.

The three most likely scorelines are 2-1 (10%), 1-1 (9%), 2-0 (8%).

The rest of the season

Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Sirius a 92.7% chance of the title and Malmo FF 0%, from 10000 simulated seasons.
