Analysis

Our model puts an Instituto (Córdoba) win at 62.9% in this Liga Profesional Argentina fixture — the clearest call on this fixture. Expected goals run 2.13 to 0.98.

What this probability has been worth

A number is worth what it has been worth. Across 2,561 predictions published before kick-off and scored against the result afterwards, the calls we priced between 55% and 65% came in 51.9% of the time — 497 fixtures in that band. That is 7.6 points below what the model claimed, so read this figure as optimistic: in this range it has been saying more than it could support. We publish the gap rather than quietly shading the number, because a record that only shows its good bands is not a record.

Evenly rated

There is almost nothing between these two on rating — 1538 against 1514, a gap of 24 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.

Instituto (Córdoba) are hard to beat

Instituto (Córdoba) have gone 7 matches without losing, though without stringing wins together. That pattern tends to push draw probability up more than it pushes a win probability.
