Tightly Contested Predictions

Most evenly matched fixtures by predicted outcome probabilities — Sunday 26 September 2021

These fixtures have the smallest gap between home and away win probability — 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.

20 matches cleared our threshold on Sunday 26 September 2021. The strongest reading belongs to Giresunspor vs Kayserispor at 100% in the Süper Lig. The shortlist runs from 100% down to 85%, so the depth of the card matters as much as the headline pick.

The shortlist spans ten different competitions, so there is no single league driving the day.

Tightly Contested — common questions

What does the Tightly Contested market mean?

Tightly Contested settles on whether a match is close to a three-way coin toss between home, draw and away. It is one of the most commonly offered football markets and is priced by every major bookmaker.

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. The outcome evenness shown here is how evenly the model spreads probability across all three results. No bookmaker odds are used as an input — the model is independent of the market.

How many fixtures qualified for Tightly Contested on Sunday 26 September 2021?

20 fixtures met the criteria, led by Giresunspor vs Kayserispor at 100% outcome evenness.

Which fixtures appear on this page?

Fixtures with the smallest spread between home, draw and away probability, ranked strongest first. The page defaults to today; the date strip moves to other days, and only fixtures with enough underlying result history to generate a model snapshot are eligible.

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.
