Cottbus vs Bochum prediction

- Model called 1 ✗ (home win): got it wrong
- Market called 12 ✓ (either team wins, no draw): called it
Who wins?
Brit Predictor's model rates Cottbus to win as the most likely result (52%). It gives Cottbus 52% at home, a draw 24% and Bochum 25%, so its call is 1: Cottbus to win. The bookmakers, with their margin removed, have it 34% / 25% / 41%, a call of 12 — a clear disagreement with the model. Expected goals are 1.9 for Cottbus and 1.2 for Bochum; the single most likely score is 1-1. Careful: there is little recent data on Cottbus, 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.
