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. Platense have 7 in 23 this season (3 of 11 at home), Fluminense 13 in 25 (4 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 43%.

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 39%.

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 44%, from expected goals of 0.91 for Platense and 1.52 for Fluminense. Folding in 30% of that view gives 41%.

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.
