Percentage chance of each exact scoreline, Venezia down the side and Lazio across. These 99.6% cover every result up to 5 goals a side; the remaining 0.4% 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.

Our bet on this match

Goals over 3.5: Under 3.5

  • We make this 72% against a market price of 65% — 7 points of difference.
  • Allowing for what we do not know about this match, we are 65% sure our number is the higher of the two. That is our own uncertainty, not the chance the bet wins.
  • Their last 10 matches between them averaged 3.2 goals, and 3.2 expected across the 6 we have expected goals for.
  • Their last 4 meetings averaged 2.3 goals.
  • 21 players reported unavailable — 11 for Venezia, 10 for Lazio.

Our forecast makes Lazio the most likely of the three results, at 39% (we would not be surprised by anything from 30% to 48%). Most likely is not likely: at 39% this result does not happen 61% of the time. The market agrees on the result and prices it at 47%.

Gap is our probability minus the market's. A large one means we disagree with the price, not that we are right — whether we have been is published per market on the accuracy page. A market with no price is one we hold no odds for yet.
