- Model called 12 ✗ (either team wins, no draw): got it wrong
- Market called 1 ✗ (home win): got it wrong
Who wins?
Brit Predictor's model rates Northampton to win as the most likely result (40%). It gives Northampton 40% at home, a draw 25% and Swindon 35%, so its call is 12: either team to win (no draw). The bookmakers, with their margin removed, have it 43% / 27% / 30%, a call of 1. Expected goals are 1.5 for Northampton and 1.3 for Swindon; on goals, the model leans Over 2.5 at 53%. Careful: there is little recent data on Northampton, usually a promoted side, and the market tends to be right about those.
Rebuilt after kick-off using only matches played before it. A double chance (1X, X2, 12) is called when the top two results are within 10 points. A goals call (O2.5 or U2.5) is made only when the model gives one side at least 65%.
