Each pick's figure is the one published with it before kickoff. It comes from a separate calculation, so a pick on the result can show a different number from the win/draw/win split above.

What we said pre-match

"Over 1.5 Goals is the model's high-confidence call at 74% because both sides project narrow xG separation (Lazio 1.24, Milan 1.38) with attacking threats like Zaccagni and Leão generating consistent creation pressure."
