Analysis

Both model families pick Chelsea F.C., rating it at 50.4% — a consensus worth weighing, not a certainty.

The two have met 2 times, and Chelsea 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. Chelsea F.C.'s last 5 produced 25 goals — 5.0 per game; they scored in 4 of them and conceded in 5. Sunderland A.F.C.'s 5 produced 14, at 2.8 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.
  • Chelsea F.C.'s games are very high-scoring at 5.0 goals — more goals means more variance and less predictability.
