Who wins?
Brit Predictor's model rates Sheffield United to win as the most likely result (35%). It gives Blackburn 33% at home, a draw 31% and Sheffield United 35%, so its call is 12: either team to win (no draw). The bookmakers, with their margin removed, have it 33% / 27% / 40%, a call of 12. Expected goals are 1.1 for Blackburn and 1.1 for Sheffield United; on goals, the model leans Under 2.5 at 63%.
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%.
