Frequently asked questions

Who will win Uruguay vs Spain?
Our Elo model makes Spain the favourite, with a 75% chance to win in 90 minutes (Uruguay 3%, draw 22%, Spain 75%). It is a statistical estimate for entertainment, not a betting tip.
What is the predicted score for Uruguay vs Spain?
The single most likely scoreline is Uruguay 0-2 Spain (15%), from a Poisson model built on expected goals of 0.6 and 2.0. There is a 48% chance of over 2.5 goals and 39% that both teams score.
How is this World Cup prediction calculated?
Each nation carries a World Football Elo rating that re-rates after every completed match. A fixture’s win expectancy follows the standard Elo formula over the rating gap (plus a host-nation bonus), a draw share is carved out for evenly matched sides, and expected goals feed a Poisson model for the scoreline. Where a Polymarket market exists we show its implied odds as an independent reference.
