Pre-match model vs market

Market and model are independent views, not competing answers. Their difference is shown in percentage points (pp) and is a prompt to investigate assumptions or missing information.

Spainmodel 42% · market 43% (model vs market 1.1pp)
Drawmodel 36% · market 32% (model vs market +4.5pp)
Argentinamodel 22% · market 26% (model vs market 3.4pp)

Market = probability from the designated reference market after bookmaker margin is removed. Model = independent Dixon-Coles-adjusted simulation. The Quick read uses the separately labeled overall estimate, which combines these inputs.

Evidence and inputs

  • Monte Carlo simulation: 50,000 runs (engine v1.1-dc-poisson-mktshares).
  • Rest: Spain 5d, Argentina 4d since last match.
  • League scoring baseline: 2.7 goals/game.
  • Neutral venue — no home advantage in the model.
  • Lineups unconfirmed at last model run.

Questions

Who won Spain vs Argentina?

Spain won: the final score was Spain 1–0 Argentina. Clauseground's pre-match blend carried that outcome at 42%. That probability described uncertainty; it did not promise the result.

How does Clauseground predict Spain vs Argentina?

Clauseground uses an independent Poisson model with a Dixon-Coles low-score correction and removes the margin from a complete designated reference market. It shows the model and market views separately, then may calculate a market-specific combined estimate. Each probability retains its source label and timestamp.
