Who wins?
Brit Predictor's model rates Wigan to win as the most likely result (38%). It gives Wigan 38% at home, a draw 28% and Leyton Orient 34%, so its call is 12: either team to win (no draw). The bookmakers, with their margin removed, have it 48% / 27% / 25%, a call of 1 — a clear disagreement with the model. Expected goals are 1.2 for Wigan and 1.1 for Leyton Orient; on goals, the model leans Under 2.5 at 61%.
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%.
