Tightly Contested Predictions

Most evenly matched fixtures by predicted outcome probabilities β€” Saturday 18 June 2022

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.

Twelve fixtures cleared the bar on Saturday 18 June 2022. Cuiaba vs Ceara sits top on 95% in the Serie A. The shortlist runs from 95% down to 71%, so the tail is materially weaker than the top.

Veikkausliiga supplies four 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.

twelve fixtures met the criteria, led by Cuiaba vs Ceara at 95% outcome evenness.

Which fixtures appear on this page?

How accurate are these tightly contested predictions?

Every settled prediction is scored and published on our model accuracy page, broken down by market and league. Treat any single day as a small sample — the model is built to be judged over hundreds of fixtures, not one card.
