Goal Fest Predictions

Fixtures ranked by highest predicted expected total goals β€” Wednesday 22 May 2024

Our prediction model calculates the expected number of goals each team is likely to score based on historical attack and defence strengths. Fixtures at the top of this list have the highest combined expected goals (xG) β€” making them the best candidates for Over 2.5 and Both Teams to Score markets.

The model shortlists six fixtures on Wednesday 22 May 2024. SHANGHAI SIPG vs Chengdu Better City led the list at 4.32 in the Super League. The shortlist runs from 4.32 down to 2.92, which is a meaningful spread across a single day.

Of the six fixtures on this list that have since finished, three landed the goal fest market — 50%. This is a single day's sample and swings heavily; the rolling record across all fixtures is on the model accuracy page.

No bookmaker odds are used as an input — the model is independent of the market.
