Nantes arrive with 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats from their last 5 league games (WLWDL from most recent), scoring 8 and conceding 10 with 1 clean sheet. Reims arrive with 3 wins, 2 draws and 0 defeats from their last 5 league games (DWDWW from most recent), scoring 12 and conceding 6 with 0 clean sheets. In the table Nantes sit 15th with 7 points from 7 games and a goal difference of -4, while Reims are 3rd with 13 points and a goal difference of +6. That puts Reims 6 points clear of their opponent. Nantes average 1.0 goals scored and 2.0 conceded over their last five home games, while Reims average 2.0 scored and 0.7 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 Nantes), team strength (Elo & Glicko) (8.9 points toward Reims), attack (2.0 points toward Nantes). 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 57% and Over 2.5 at 43%, so its call is Under 2.5. Recent games are less clear-cut: Nantes matches produced 3.6 goals on average over their last 5, Reims matches 3.6. Both teams to score comes in at 53%, no goal for at least one side at 47%. In the model's own attribution, league scoring environment pulls toward Under by 2.6 points and Nantes defense pulls toward Under by 2.5 points.
