Tightly Contested Predictions

Most evenly matched fixtures by predicted outcome probabilities β€” Friday 22 July 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.

Nine fixtures cleared the bar on Friday 22 July 2022. The strongest reading belongs to Warta Poznań vs Wisla Plock at 88% in the Ekstraklasa. The shortlist runs from 88% down to 74%, which is a meaningful spread across a single day.

The shortlist spans seven different competitions, a broad spread rather than one division dominating.
