After the match

3–0

No estimate was frozen before this match.

Model estimate

i

The model's chances for a home win, a draw and an away win. ❄ = the estimate was frozen within the last hour before kick-off (the model runs hourly) and no longer changes; “provisional” = it can still change until it is frozen. How good the model is can be seen on the calibration page.

No estimate was frozen before this match.

In three sentences

i
