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

St. Louis's 2.09 xG advantage over Austin's 1.03 makes the home win at 59% the strongest play despite modest odds.
