The top choice for each market β€” for reference only, no guarantee; any bet you place on it is at your own risk. For matches with bookmaker prices the pick equals the top option of the margin-free market consensus; without prices it is the statistical model.

Pre-match template read (from pre-match data)
  • The published probabilities favour LA Galaxy (69%); expected goals LA Galaxy 2.91 – 1.35 Austin FC.
  • Goals look likely: 4.27 expected in total, 80% for over 2.5 and 71% for both teams to score.
  • The single most likely score is 2:1 (8%) β€” any exact score is a long shot by nature; the likeliest HT/FT path is H/H (47%).
  • Last five: LA Galaxy DDWLW (2 wins), Austin FC LWLLL (1 wins).

Probabilities include the bookmaker consensus, which already reflects public team news; the statistical-model part uses results, scores and the closing prices of past matches, not team news directly. Check official club news before kick-off.

1X2 and over/under 2.5 on this page equal the margin-free consensus of the closing prices recorded for this match (football-data.co.uk) (the backtest found the market more accurate than our model, so the model weight is currently 0); every other market comes from the same score matrix.
