What the model expects
The model’s likeliest result is a Dinamo Zagreb win, and it gives Dinamo Zagreb 47.3%, a draw 26.7% and an Anderlecht win 26%. These probabilities and projections are estimates. Its expected-goals figures are 1.7 for Dinamo Zagreb and 1.2 for Anderlecht, setting out the scoring expectation for each side without making a single scoreline certain.
The model puts over 2.5 goals at 53.1% and under 2.5 goals at 46.9%. It gives both teams a chance of scoring at 55.2%, while 44.8% is the chance that at least one side fails to score. The leading exact-score projections are 1-1 (11.6%), 1-0 (9.5%) and 2-1 (9%). The score forecasts include a draw and wins for either side, so the model’s central expectation is not confined to one exact outcome.
