Each dot is a tenth of the probability range: what we said, against how often it happened. On the dashed line we were exactly right; above it we were too cautious, below it too confident. The rule through each dot is one standard error, and the dot's area is how many matches it rests on — the sparse ones at the ends will always scatter.

Furthest out: when we said 13%, it happened 0% of the time, across 2 matches.

Common questions

How accurate are your over/under predictions?

Our over 2.5 and under 2.5 forecasts are scored the same way as the match result: we publish what we said against what actually happened, and the summary states the verdict in plain language. The two-way markets are judged with Brier score rather than ranked probability score, because that is the honest metric for a two-outcome call.
