Percentage chance of each exact scoreline, Den Bosch down the side and Helmond Sport across. These 99.2% cover every result up to 5 goals a side; the remaining 0.8% 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 69% against a market price of 51% — 18 points of difference.
  • Allowing for what we do not know about this match, we are 77% 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 4.3 goals.
  • The price has moved 3.3% away from Den Bosch since it opened.

Our forecast makes Den Bosch the most likely of the three results, at 49% (we would not be surprised by anything from 36% to 61%). Most likely is not likely: at 49% this result does not happen 51% of the time. The market agrees on the result and prices it at 53%.

How the devigged price moved before kick-off

Solid: the market over 6 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.
