General match analysis

Typ 1X2 after 90 minutes: We don't assume Algeria domination, only survival, keeping the result close and taking advantage of one moment at the end or penalties. After 90 minutes, our highest estimate is a draw. Our prediction is 32% for Switzerland, 35% for draw and 33% for Algeria. Most likely exact result: 1:1. Promotion: Algeria (48% vs 52%). Status: BET

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Typ BTTS: yes. Switzerland is more structured, but Algeria has more unpredictability and a better profile for a match that goes into tense overtime. We don't assume Algeria domination, only survival, keeping the result close and taking advantage of one moment at the end or penalties. After 90 minutes, our highest estimate is a draw. Both teams have a viable path to goal: the favorite through longer possession or individual quality, and the other side through transitions, set pieces or space after the opening match. The model gives 55% on BTTS Yes and 45% on BTTS No, with expected goals Switzerland 1.10, Algeria 1.15. Status: SMALL BET

Over/Under - goals analysis

Typ: under 2.5. Switzerland is more structured, but Algeria has more unpredictability and a better profile for a match that goes into tense overtime. We don't assume Algeria domination, only survival, keeping the result close and taking advantage of one moment at the end or penalties. After 90 minutes, our highest estimate is a draw. The gate model gives 39% on Over 2.5 and 61% on Under 2.5. xG: Switzerland 1.10, Algeria 1.15, total 2.25. Most likely result: 1:1. Line 2.5 separates a controlled match from an open match. In this pair, the underlying score and the need for caution after conceding a goal for the first time are more important than the teams' branding itself. Status: SMALL BET

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Typ HT/FT: X/X. Switzerland is more structured, but Algeria has more unpredictability and a better profile for a match that goes into tense overtime. We don't assume Algeria domination, only survival, keeping the result close and taking advantage of one moment at the end or penalties. After 90 minutes, our highest estimate is a draw. We assume a cautious start and the outcome only after one side increases the risk or the favorite finds more space. The highest model paths are X/X 26%, 2/2 17% and 1/1 16%. The HT/FT spread is calibrated to our 1X2 32%-35%-33% and does not use odds. Status: SMALL BET
