What we expect from each side, next to how they have been doing lately.
Shots and corners are not shown for this fixture — we do not have enough counted matches for these sides yet. Each card is drawn on one scale, so the two bars are directly comparable. “Above recent” means our forecast is higher than their average over the last six.
How likely the big moments are, and what they add up to.
Ranked by our probability, strongest first.
Bayer Leverkusen should win this one. They have won five of their last six, the model expects them to create about a goal more per game than 1. FC Nürnberg, and 1. FC Nürnberg have not beaten them in their last five meetings. Expect goals: the model sees around four.
Bayer Leverkusen to win, priced again from the same expected goals if the match reaches these states.
Each row is the call re-priced for that scoreline at half-time. Lineups are not in it — we publish per-player shooting rates, not a squad-strength number, so what a rested front three does to this figure is not something we can honestly put a number on.
Chance of at least one goal before half-time: 81%

Bawler estimates each side's expected goals from its results and the quality of its chances, adjusted for the strength of the opposition and for home advantage, then works out the chance of every scoreline to get win, draw and both-teams-to-score probabilities. Team news and lineups are not built into these numbers. For this match that gives Bayer Leverkusen 86%, the draw 10% and 1. FC Nürnberg 4%. Every prediction is published before kickoff and settled afterwards.
