How are German football predictions calculated?
A Poisson model estimates each team's expected goals from its attack and defence strengths in recent results, then builds a probability for every possible scoreline. Over 2.5, both teams to score and match result probabilities are summed from those scorelines. No bookmaker odds are used as an input.
Are kick-off times shown in German time?
Yes. Kick-off times on this page's fixture cards are shown in German time (CET/CEST, the Europe/Berlin time zone) and adjust automatically for summer time. They are not converted to your own location, so check the time against the official club or league listing before relying on it. The date selector uses UTC days.
