Over 2.5 Goals Predictions

Fixtures ranked by highest predicted over 2.5 probability β€” Saturday 17 December 2022

Over 2.5 goals is the most widely-backed goals market β€” it needs at least 3 goals in the match. Our prediction model calculates this as the probability of at least 3 total goals, sitting between the safer over 1.5 and higher-risk over 3.5 markets. Only fixtures with 55%+ probability are shown.

The model shortlists seven fixtures on Saturday 17 December 2022. Standard Liège II vs Lommel United sits top on 74% in the Challenger Pro League. The shortlist runs from 74% down to 56%, so the depth of the card matters as much as the headline pick.

League One supplies three of the top 7, which is worth noting if you are spreading selections across leagues.

Of the seven fixtures on this list that have since finished, three landed the over 2.5 goals market — 43%. This is a single day's sample and swings heavily; the rolling record across all fixtures is on the model accuracy page.
