Colorado Rapids vs FC Dallas

Bawler runs a Poisson model on rolling xG, normalised across leagues, adjusted for venue and injuries. This page shows the full chain — every number you can see is one we used.

Why the model calls it this way

Colorado's poor conversion history combined with Dallas's marginal xG advantage (1.36 vs 1.32) makes the draw the strongest play at 78% probability despite home disadvantage.
