⇄ Why the estimates differ

The supplied form and season records point strongly toward Real Betis, which may help explain why the market gives the home side a much larger advantage. Betis are fourth with six wins from ten matches, while Málaga are twentieth without a win, have scored seven goals and conceded 19, and have lost three of their last five. The xG figures also show a substantial difference in attacking and defensive performance.

The model’s less decisive separation could be associated with evidence of vulnerability in Betis’s data: they have conceded 14 goals, allow 1.48 xG per match, and recently lost 2-5 at home to Barcelona. Their recent results also include a narrow win over Feyenoord and a goalless draw. Both teams have several unavailable players, and no line-ups are announced, adding uncertainty about how those absences affect the match.

Gap of 22.6 percentage points.
