Prediction review
Tuesday, 1 September 2026
On 2026-09-01 we had published a prediction for 28 fixtures before kick-off. We called 11 of them correctly, 39%.
Our strongest call
The call we backed hardest was Salford City to beat Newport County in League Two, at 60.5%, and it held. It finished 2–1.
Where we were most wrong
Parma against Cremonese finished 0–2. We had published Parma to beat Cremonese at 59.4%, the largest confidence we placed on an outcome that did not happen. It stays on the record: a site that reports only its hits is not reporting a record, it is reporting a selection.
The ones we called close
7 fixtures were split closely enough that no outcome reached 40%. 4 of them ended level. We publish these without pretending to a view: a fixture the model divides three ways is one it has little to tell you about, and saying so is more useful than manufacturing a lean.
Coverage
The day's predictions spanned 4 competitions: League Two (11), Championship (8), League One (7).
