The two sides

Spartak Moscow carry a model rating of 6.49 against 6.14 for Akron. 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 2.39 goals for Spartak Moscow and 0.95 for Akron. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Spartak Moscow rate 0.70 in attack and 1.45 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Akron rate 0.53 and 2.21.

The rest of the season

Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Spartak Moscow a 18.4% chance of the title and Akron 0%, from 10,000 simulated seasons.

How this was produced

Publicly tracked record so far: 2,309 correct results out of 4,819 settled predictions (48%), with 476 exact scorelines (10%). That log is updated automatically after every match and is never edited.

Full method: how the model works.

Once the match starts, the win probabilities at the top update live from the score, the clock and any sendings-off.

Team comparison

Bars show each side's share of the two-team total, based on the model's attack/defence ratings and expected goals for this fixture.

Why the model favours this side

Spartak Moscow's attack/defence rating is 0.7/1.45 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 0.53/2.21 for Akron.

How the model reaches 63% for Spartak Moscow to win

Start from two average sides on neutral ground: 36% for Spartak Moscow to win. Then home advantage adds 6 points, Spartak Moscow's ratings take away 18 points and Akron's ratings add 39 points, which lands on the published 63%.

  1. Two average sides, neutral ground36%
  2. Home advantage42%+6
  3. Spartak Moscow's ratings24%−18
  4. Akron's ratings63%+39

Each step adds one input to the step before. In another order the steps would differ in size; the end point would not.

Each cell counts the league goals that went in during that 15-minute window. Each side's goals sit above the goals its opponent has let in over the same minutes; the darker the cell, the more goals in that window. Stoppage time counts in the last window of its half. Source: API-Football season statistics, refreshed after each league match; own goals are not always counted on the same side as in the table, so a row can be a goal off it.

The colour is how strong the opponent is, from easier to harder as on the scale above: its model rating ranked among the teams of that competition, in fifths, so bright red is the top fifth whoever is playing it. The win figure is this side's own chance in that match, which is where venue and its own level come in. A match already on our board links to its own prediction; the rest follow as their week comes up.
