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
Stellenbosch carry a model rating of 6.36 against 6.22 for Chippa United. 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 a tight, low-scoring game
Under the hood the model expects 1.22 goals for Stellenbosch and 0.72 for Chippa United. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Stellenbosch rate 0.58 in attack and 1.54 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Chippa United rate 0.49 and 1.75.

Goals scored and conceded, by minute
All Premier Soccer League matches this season: Stellenbosch 8, Chippa United 7.
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. Context, not a prediction.

Each side's next matches on our board after this one. 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.
