Huracán vs Aldosivi
Our model puts a Huracán win at 66.2% in this Liga Profesional Argentina fixture — the clearest call on this fixture. Expected goals run 2.3 to 0.97.
What this probability has been worth
A number is worth what it has been worth. Across 1,601 predictions published before kick-off and scored against the result afterwards, the calls we priced between 65% and 75% came in 69.9% of the time — 136 fixtures in that band. The model claimed 69.3%, so the two are within 0.5 points of each other. In this range the stated probability has meant roughly what it says.
Where we disagree with the market
Bookmakers price the draw at 3.4, which implies about 29.4%. Our model has it at 18.9% — 10.5 points lower. That is a wide gap, and it is worth being plain about what it means: it is not a claim that the price is wrong and we are right. It means two methods that usually agree have landed far apart on this one, and only the result will say which of them read it better.
Evenly rated
There is almost nothing between these two on rating — 1508 against 1478, a gap of 30 points. Fixtures this evenly matched are where a model has least to say: the probabilities below are honest, but they are close to a coin weighted only slightly.
