What we expect
In plain English
Manchester City are more likely than not to avoid defeat, but it is close. They have won six of their last six, the model expects them to create around half a goal more per game than Paris Saint-Germain, and they have won three of the last five between them. The model sees around three goals in it.
What would change the call
Manchester City or draw, 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.
