Match Analysis

Hannover arrive with 1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats from their last 5 league games (LDWLL from most recent), scoring 5 and conceding 8 with 1 clean sheet. Bochum arrive with 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats from their last 5 league games (DWLWL from most recent), scoring 4 and conceding 4 with 1 clean sheet. In the table Hannover sit 15th with 4 points from 5 games and a goal difference of -3, while Bochum are 8th with 7 points and a level goal difference. That puts Bochum 3 points clear of their opponent. Hannover average 1.0 goals scored and 1.5 conceded over their last five home games, while Bochum average 1.5 scored and 0.5 conceded over their last five away games. Looking at what drives the winner call, the model's own attribution points to home advantage (11.1 points toward Hannover), defense (2.1 points toward Bochum), team strength (Elo & Glicko) (1.7 points toward Bochum). These factors are measured in win-probability points and add up to the gap between the two sides if there is a winner.

Under/Over 2.5 Goals Prediction

The model puts Under 2.5 at 45% and Over 2.5 at 55%, so its call is Over 2.5. Recent games are less clear-cut: Hannover matches produced 2.6 goals on average over their last 5, Bochum matches 1.6. Both teams to score comes in at 55%, no goal for at least one side at 45%. In the model's own attribution, Hannover defense pulls toward Over by 2.8 points and league scoring environment pulls toward Under by 2.6 points.
