Tightly Contested Predictions

Most evenly matched fixtures by predicted outcome probabilities β€” Tuesday 20 April 2021

These fixtures have the smallest gap between home and away win probability β€” meaning neither team has a significant edge. Our prediction model scores each fixture by how evenly the outcome probabilities are spread across all three results. Fixtures at the top are closest to a perfect 33% / 33% / 33% split, making them prime candidates for the draw and double-chance markets.

Eleven fixtures cleared the bar on Tuesday 20 April 2021. Universidad de Chile vs Union Espanola sits top on 108% in the Primera División. The shortlist runs from 108% down to 67%, so the tail is materially weaker than the top.

Premier Division supplies five of the top 10, so the day's profile is concentrated rather than spread evenly.

How does Fixture360 calculate tightly contested probability?

Our Poisson model estimates each team's expected goals from their attack and defence strengths, then builds a probability for every possible scoreline. The outcome evenness shown here is how evenly the model spreads probability across all three results. No bookmaker odds are used as an input — the model is independent of the market.

How many fixtures qualified for Tightly Contested on Tuesday 20 April 2021?

eleven fixtures met the criteria, led by Universidad de Chile vs Union Espanola at 108% outcome evenness.

Which fixtures appear on this page?
