Real dataStatistics onlyUpdated 26/10 08:41

Every prediction is saved before the match and compared with the result.

In short

Over 18 matches the model got the outcome (1, X or 2) right 28% of the time. Always picking a home win would be right about 47% of the time. For now its percentages do no better than league averages alone.

With fewer than 30 matches this is only a first look: the numbers can change a lot.

For now the model does no better than the simple method (6% more error). With 18 matches the figure is still shaky: it needs at least fifty matches, ideally a hundred.

When I say 60%, does it happen?

Each point is a band of predictions (the number next to it says how many matches). The closer the points are to the dashed line, the more reliable the percentages.

If "Stated" and "Actual" are close, the percentages are reliable.

New model or old?

Over 18 matches, statistics only: error 0.43 for the current model, 0.41 for the first version. Too early to say.

Reliability by market

A 0–100 indicator built from calibration and Brier score. It is descriptive, not a guarantee of results. The model's picks use the history only when there are at least 10 observations per category.

Sample still too small: the system keeps collecting data without changing the model's probabilities.
