Each cell is one exact result, shaded against the likeliest one; figures below 1% are left blank rather than rounded to zero. Blue cells are Tigres UANL wins, grey are draws, red are Puebla wins — the three shaded areas ARE the 1/X/2 split above, which is the sum of the cells in each. The most likely scoreline is simply the darkest cell inside whichever area the model favours.

Two sides the ratings cannot separate
Tigres UANL carry a model rating of 6.67 against 6.65 for Puebla. 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.
What the model expects
Under the hood the model expects 1.30 goals for Tigres UANL and 0.91 for Puebla. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Tigres UANL rate 0.77 in attack and 1.11 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Puebla rate 0.68 and 1.04.
Where the model differs from the table
The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour Puebla, while our numbers lean the other way. The model weights recent expected goals rather than results already banked, so it moves before the table does.
Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Tigres UANL a 0% chance of the title and Puebla 3.5%, from 10000 simulated seasons.
How this was produced
Publicly tracked record so far: 1151 correct results out of 2437 settled predictions (47%), with 230 exact scorelines (9%). That log is updated automatically after every match and is never edited.
Full method: how the model works.
From the first whistle this page keeps going: the win probabilities at the top are recalculated as the match plays out, reading the score, the clock and any sendings-off. The same model, asked how many goals are left rather than how many there will be.
