🧭 How the Model Sees It
The engine makes Zulte Waregem a 80% call — a clear lean, and about as certain as this model gets on a three-way market where the draw always takes a share of the book.
The projection totals 4 goals. Comfortably over 2.5 and above the average match — the model expects both defences to give something up.
Confidence is filed as medium at 66/99. That tier is set from the shape of the probability distribution, not from how the fixture feels, and it is published before kick-off and graded against the result afterwards — right or wrong, it stays on the page.
