Percentage chance of each exact scoreline, KVC Westerlo down the side and Standard Liege across. These 99.3% cover every result up to 5 goals a side; the remaining 0.7% is spread across higher scores.

Every other number on this page is a sum of this grid — the match result is the cells either side of the diagonal, over 2.5 is everything totalling three or more. We publish calibration for those sums, not for individual scorelines: no gate has ever graded our chance of exactly 2–1, so read a single cell as the shape of the forecast rather than a number we stand behind.

Recommended bet: none on this match

We weighed 11 priced outcomes on this match and none of them cleared the bar we set. Most matches end here, and a page that found a bet in every fixture would not be worth reading.

Our forecast makes KVC Westerlo the most likely of the three results, at 46% (we would not be surprised by anything from 37% to 55%). Most likely is not likely: at 46% this result does not happen 54% of the time. The market agrees on the result and prices it at 39%.

How the devigged price moved before kick-off

Solid: the market over 5 captures. Dashed: our forecast, which does not move. Scaled 0–100%, so a line that looks flat is a price that barely moved rather than one we stopped watching.
