Bayer Leverkusen favoured against OFI

Our model makes OFI 25% to win this UEFA Europa League fixture, with the draw at 24% and Bayer Leverkusen at 51%. The goal projection is 1.21 for OFI against 1.82 for Bayer Leverkusen — a substantial edge to Bayer Leverkusen on expected output. A combined 3.02 goals points to an open game around the league average, which puts over 2.5 at 58% and both teams to score at 59%. The single most likely scoreline is 1-1 at 11%, though no individual scoreline is ever likely in absolute terms — that is the nature of a low-scoring sport. This sits in the awkward middle of the distribution, where the model has a view but not a strong one. All figures come from a Dixon–Coles adjusted Poisson model fitted on recent results and expected goals. They are estimates, not forecasts of fact.

Most likely scores: 1-1 11%; 1-2 10%; 0-1 8%; 0-2 8%; 2-1 6%
