Luxembourg vs Italy

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

Italy's 0.57 expected-goals advantage and 47% win probability make X2 the banker play, offering value in a friendly where the visitors' superior quality should prevent defeat.
