🧮 Model Insight

Model Mechanics

Working from Internacional's attack rating (1.28) and Botafogo's defence rating (0.69), the model arrives at 1.18 expected goals for the home side. The same calculation in reverse, Botafogo's attack versus Internacional's defence, projects 0.98 expected goals for the visitors.

These ratings are built from 74/74 games of current-season data — a full enough sample to trust.

The Exact-Score Picture

Run the expected-goals figures through the full scoreline distribution and 1-1 emerges as the single most likely result, at 15.1%. Close behind: 0-0 (13.2%), 1-0 (11.8%). Those top three scorelines alone account for 40% of the model's total probability mass — a relatively concentrated, predictable distribution for this fixture.
