Why the model favours this side
The model gives Roda the highest probability at 43%, based on each side's rolling attack and defence ratings estimated from recent match data. The model projects 1.53 expected goals for Roda against 1.18 for FC Volendam. Roda's attack/defence rating is 0.51/1.36 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 0.72/1.85 for FC Volendam.
How the model reaches 43% for Roda to win
Start from two average sides on neutral ground: 36% for Roda to win. Then home advantage adds 8 points, Roda's ratings take away 2 points and FC Volendam's ratings add 1 point, which lands on the published 43%.
