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 56% and Over 2.5 at 44%, so its call is Under 2.5. Recent games point the same way: Shrewsbury matches produced 2.6 goals on average over their last 5, Exeter matches 0.6. Both teams to score comes in at 46%, no goal for at least one side at 54%.
