We make Jong AZ a 55% chance to win. The market has them at 50%. We are 5 points more confident than the market. The model expects 2.0–1.3.
What the number rests on
Our modelBuilt from every result and the chances each side creates and concedes, recent matches counting most, with home advantage in it. Line-ups, injuries and rest are not in the number.
Our number has not moved since we published. No bookmaker had priced it when we published; the market has it at 50% now.
| Market | Us | Market | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jong AZ win | 55% | 50% | +5 |
| Draw | 21% | 23% | −2 |
| Helmond Sport win | 24% | 26% | −2 |
| Over 2.5 goals | 64% | 67% | −3 |
| Both teams to score | 62% | 67% | −5 |
| Over 1.5 goals | 84% | 85% | −1 |
| Over 3.5 goals | 42% | 48% | −6 |
| Jong AZ or draw | 76% | 74% | +2 |
| Jong AZ clean sheet | 28% | – | – |
| Helmond Sport clean sheet | 13% | – | – |
Every figure here is read off one scoreline distribution, so no two can contradict each other. The market is the median of 9 bookmakers, each with its margin stripped — what we are measured against, never an input to the model.
This is a probability, not a recommendation. We take no bets and hold no affiliate relationships with any gambling operator. Model 1.2 — Pitchside Lab's own model.
