Analysis

Our model puts a Bristol Rovers win at 37.6% in this League Two fixture — close to a three-way split. Expected goals run 1.29 to 1.24.

What this probability has been worth

A number is worth what it has been worth. Across 1,941 predictions published before kick-off and scored against the result afterwards, the calls we priced between 35% and 45% came in 38.8% of the time — 717 fixtures in that band. The model claimed 40.6%, so the two are within 1.8 points of each other. In this range the stated probability has meant roughly what it says.

Salford City are on a run

Salford City arrive on 4 straight wins, part of 7 matches unbeaten. Form of that length moves our rating on its own, so it is already reflected in the numbers above rather than being an argument on top of them.
