West Ham United are the model's pick, without being a certainty. They have won four of their last six, the model expects them to create about a goal more per game than Queens Park Rangers, and Queens Park Rangers have not beaten them in their last five meetings. The model sees around three goals in it.
West Ham United 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.
Bawler's model rates this match: West Ham United are favoured (66% win probability vs 14% for Queens Park Rangers, 20% draw). The model uses rolling xG, recent form, and lineup data.
