Percentage chance of each exact scoreline, Albacete down the side and Cordoba across. These 98.8% cover every result up to 5 goals a side; the remaining 1.2% 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

Match result: Albacete

Best price 2.46 at PinnacleThe number we compare ourselves against is the middle of the market. This is the longest price we can see, which is the one that decides whether the edge is real for you.

  • We make this 50% against a market price of 40% — 10 points of difference.
  • Allowing for what we do not know about this match, we are 67% sure our number is the higher of the two. That is our own uncertainty, not the chance the bet wins.

Our forecast makes Albacete the most likely of the three results, at 50% (we would not be surprised by anything from 40% to 62%). Most likely is not likely: at 50% this result does not happen 50% of the time. The market agrees on the result and prices it at 40%.

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.

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.
