Barnsley vs Oxford prediction

- Model called 2 ✗ (away win): got it wrong
- Market called 12 ✗ (either team wins, no draw): got it wrong
Who wins?
Brit Predictor's model rates Oxford to win as the most likely result (59%). It gives Barnsley 19% at home, a draw 21% and Oxford 59%, so its call is 2: Oxford to win. The bookmakers, with their margin removed, have it 37% / 24% / 39%, a call of 12 — a clear disagreement with the model. Expected goals are 1.1 for Barnsley and 2.0 for Oxford; the single most likely score is 1-1. Careful: there is little recent data on Oxford, 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.
