How we got this number

The league sets the starting point. Copa Libertadores has produced over 2.5 goals in 41% of its matches, and that is where a team with no record of its own would sit.

Each side's own record. Estudiantes L.P. have 6 in 24 this season (5 of 13 at home), Corinthians 9 in 25 (5 of 12 away). Those records are pulled toward the league rate with the weight of about 32 matches — enough that two or three unusual games cannot swing a rating — giving 35% and 39%.

The mix. Weighted 40% home side, 40% away side and 20% league — the split that beat every alternative across 30,582 matches of testing — that gives 38%.

Goal expectation. Separately a Poisson model built from attack and defence strength — using real expected-goals data where the league has it — puts this match at 36%, from expected goals of 1.39 for Estudiantes L.P. and 0.74 for Corinthians. Folding in 30% of that view gives 37%.

This breakdown is generated from the same inputs the rating uses, so it cannot describe a calculation we did not perform. The full model is set out in the methodology.
