Pre-match Outlook

Mexico hold a slim edge over Ecuador in this World Cup match — 42% confidence puts it in the Normal tier with a 1-0 projection.

In this World Cup context, small swings in form or selection can flip the projection — treat the narrow-confidence pick as a starting point rather than a lock.

How the Model Works

We use an iterative Pi-Ratings model: each team has separate home and away attack/defense ratings, updated after every match. Lambda values are converted to outcome probabilities via Poisson distribution. Match result, over/under, and BTTS predictions are all derived from a single coherent model.
