Ecuador vs Germany

Bawler weighs each team's recent scoring and defending, then adjusts for home advantage and injuries to work out how this match is likely to go. This page shows the full chain — every number we used.

Why the model calls it this way

Over 2.5 Goals sits at 80% probability because Germany's 1.68 xG and Ecuador's 1.31 xG combine for a 2.98 total that punishes under-betting in a fixture where the visitors' attacking depth—led by Wirtz at 22% of team creation—should pierce a home defence yielding 0.37 xG more than they generate.
