A clear gap in the ratings

TSV Hartberg carry a model rating of 6.14 against 6.65 for Sturm Graz. 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): TSV Hartberg L; Sturm Graz D.

The model expects goals

Under the hood the model expects 1.25 goals for TSV Hartberg and 2.51 for Sturm Graz. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

TSV Hartberg rate 0.48 in attack and 1.97 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Sturm Graz rate 0.91 and 1.38.

That points to 72% for over two and a half goals and 66% for both teams to score.

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