Gibraltar vs Sao Tome and Principe
Our model puts a Gibraltar win at 47.2% in this Int: Friendly fixture — a moderate lean. Expected goals run 1.56 to 1.13.
Gibraltar are off their season peak
Gibraltar peaked at 1500 this season and sit at 1299 today, 201 points below their own best. Measuring a side against itself rather than against the table is often the earlier signal, and it is not visible in a league position.
A high-scoring home side
One model here does nothing but estimate how likely the home side is to score four goals or more, and on this fixture it reads 64.8%. Across our settled fixtures that happens about 8% of the time, so this is well above ordinary. It says nothing about who wins — a side can score four and still be caught — but a match where one team is expected to run up a total is one where the scoreline is much harder to call than the result.
