Tightly Contested Predictions

Most evenly matched fixtures by predicted outcome probabilities β€” Monday 27 February 2023

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.

Eleven fixtures cleared the bar on Monday 27 February 2023. The strongest reading belongs to Amiens vs Bordeaux at 94% in the Ligue 2. The shortlist runs from 94% down to 67%, which is a meaningful spread across a single day.

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