Who wins?
Brit Predictor's model rates Northampton to win as the most likely result (36%). It gives Northampton 36% at home, a draw 29% and Rotherham 34%, so its call is 12: either team to win (no draw). The bookmakers, with their margin removed, have it 37% / 28% / 34%, a call of 12. Expected goals are 1.1 for Northampton and 1.1 for Rotherham; on goals, the model leans Under 2.5 at 62%. Careful: there is little recent data on Northampton, Rotherham, 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%.
