The two sides

Sturm Graz carry a model rating of 6.59 against 6.39 for SCR Altach. 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): Sturm Graz D-W; SCR Altach L-W.

The model expects goals

Under the hood the model expects 2.60 goals for Sturm Graz and 1.30 for SCR Altach. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Sturm Graz rate 0.84 in attack and 1.43 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; SCR Altach rate 0.65 and 1.64.

That points to 75% for over two and a half goals and 68% for both teams to score.

The three most likely scorelines are 2-1 (9%), 3-1 (8%), 1-1 (7%).
