Columbus Crew vs Atlanta United FC

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

Columbus's 0.48 xG edge combined with Atlanta's 24% win probability makes the 1X banker (76%) the model's most confident play despite modest home odds.
