The two sides

Vasteras SK FK carry a model rating of 6.35 against 6.55 for Kalmar FF. 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): Vasteras SK FK W-W-D-W-L; Kalmar FF L-D-W-D-L.

The model expects goals

Under the hood the model expects 1.64 goals for Vasteras SK FK and 1.83 for Kalmar FF. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Vasteras SK FK rate 0.74 in attack and 2.11 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Kalmar FF rate 0.62 and 1.17.

That points to 67% for over two and a half goals and 68% for both teams to score.

The three most likely scorelines are 1-1 (10%), 1-2 (9%), 2-1 (8%).

Where the model differs from the table

The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour Vasteras SK FK, 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.
