Who wins?
Brit Predictor's model rates St Johnstone to win as the most likely result (39%). It gives St Johnstone 39% at home, a draw 27% and Dundee United 34%, so its call is 12: either team to win (no draw). The bookmakers, with their margin removed, have it 33% / 26% / 41%, a call of 12. Expected goals are 1.3 for St Johnstone and 1.2 for Dundee United; the single most likely score is 1-1. Careful: there is little recent data on St Johnstone, 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.
