Slovakia should get at least a draw here. The model expects them to create around half a goal more per game than Faroe Islands. The model sees around three goals in it.
The grey number is their average over the last six.
Each bar is split by each side's share of the total.
Slovakia or draw is 82% now. Here is what it would become at half-time:
Each row is the call worked out again for that half-time score. 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.
How likely each side is to reach these totals before half-time.
At half-time we update each side’s chance of scoring in the second half from what the first half showed.
Bawler's model rates this match: Slovakia are favoured (57% win probability vs 18% for Faroe Islands, 25% draw). The model uses each side’s expected goals, recent form and the strength of the opposition.
The most likely scoreline from Bawler's model is Slovakia 1-0 Faroe Islands (12.4% probability). Expected total goals: 2.6.
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 Slovakia 57%, the draw 25% and Faroe Islands 18%. Every prediction is published before kickoff and settled afterwards.
Probably not — Bawler's model gives both teams scoring a 48% chance, so at least one side is more likely than not to keep a clean sheet. That is based on Slovakia expecting 1.76 goals and Faroe Islands 0.88.
Bawler's model expects 2.6 goals in total. It leans slightly towards two goals or fewer: over 2.5 goals is 49%.
