Analysis
Both model families pick Middlesbrough F.C., rating it at 61.5% — a consensus worth weighing, not a certainty.
The two have met 2 times, and Middlesbrough F.C. won none of them. 2 games is too small a sample to build on, so it doesn't feed the forecast.
They arrive from very different football. Middlesbrough F.C.'s last 5 produced 19 goals — 3.8 per game; they scored in 4 of them and conceded in 4. Portsmouth F.C.'s 5 produced 11, at 2.2 per game.
What to keep in mind
- The head-to-head record doesn't support the forecast: 2 games, no win for the side we back.
