0 - 0
Strong
Over 2.5 goals Lost Strong lean Strong · High scoring

The model’s 67.9% over‑2.5 probability, backed by Jablonec’s 2.0 home xG and Rīgas FS’s 1.5 away xG, points to a high‑scoring game.

Show the maths
Jablonec’s expected 2.0 goals at home plus Rīgas FS’s 1.5 expected away goals sum to 3.5 goals. The model translates any expected total above 2.5 into an over‑2.5 probability of 67.9%, reflecting the gap between the combined xG and the 2.5‑goal line. This probability is the strongest single‑market signal in the data set, giving the over a clear edge.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes Lost 67.2% model probability

With FK Jablonec averaging 2.0 expected goals and Rīgas FS averaging 1.5, the model gives a 67.2% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 32.8% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (FK Jablonec 2.0, Rīgas FS 1.5) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 67.2% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 32.8% where at least one side is shut out.
