The numbers this season

Allsvenskan has averaged 2.87 goals a game over 217 matches this season, with over 2.5 goals in 53% of them and both sides scoring in 51%. Home sides have won 41% of matches, 24% have been drawn and away sides have won 36%. Those rates are the base the model's probabilities are judged against: a call only stands out where it beats what the competition normally produces.

About these predictions

How are Allsvenskan predictions made?
A Dixon–Coles adjusted Poisson model rates every side's attack and defence from recent results and expected goals, with home advantage estimated from this season's matches, and turns the two sides' ratings into a probability for every scoreline. Match result, total goals and both teams to score are all summed from that one distribution, so they cannot contradict each other.
When are Allsvenskan predictions published?
At least 24 hours before kick-off and up to eight days ahead, as soon as both sides' recent form is on record. Nothing is edited or removed after kick-off; the dated pages keep every forecast as it was published.
How often do home teams win in Allsvenskan?
41% of matches this season, over 217 played, with 24% drawn and 36% won by the away side. Matches have averaged 2.87 goals, and over 2.5 goals has landed in 53%.

The method in full is under how it works; the model is explained on its own page. A high probability is not a certainty: a 70% call is expected to be wrong three times in ten.
