How we calculate this
Accuracy is the share of graded result predictions we called right. Calibration measures the gap between predicted probabilities and outcomes. Brier measures probability error; lower is better for both. Market comparisons use bookmaker consensus on matched predictions. League data summarises past matches, separately from the prediction record.
