Tightly Contested Predictions

Most evenly matched fixtures by predicted outcome probabilities β€” Tuesday 3 February 2026

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.

14 fixtures cleared the bar on Tuesday 3 February 2026. The strongest reading belongs to Piast Gliwice vs Lech Poznan at 94% in the Ekstraklasa. The shortlist runs from 94% down to 67%, which is a meaningful spread across a single day.

Pro League supplies three of the top 10, so the day's profile is concentrated rather than spread evenly.
