Why the model disagrees with the market

The leading outcome: Bohemian FC to win

What the model's reading is made of

  • The model makes Bohemian FC to win 35.5%. The market, with the bookmaker's margin taken out, makes it 30.5%. The gap between the two is 5.0%.
  • The model's expected goals for Bohemian FC are their own fitted attack times the defence in front of them, and the fit rates that attack at 1.24 — above the competition's average of 1.00.

These are the parts of the model's own number, not an account of the bookmaker's. The fit reads two ratings a side, the competition's average home and away expected goals, the window it looks back over and how many matches it found in it — and nothing else is a reason this page can give.

What the model did not read

Readings for Shamrock Rovers and Bohemian FC that the model does not use.

All of this is in the database and none of it entered the fit. A reading here may point the other way from every line above it — where it does, both are true, and only one of them is in the model.

Limitations

The model reads expected goals and nothing else. It does not know the lineups, who is injured or suspended, what either side has to play for, the weather, or how congested the schedule around this match is.
