Match preview & prediction

Bray Wanderers are tipped to win this encounter, a result that the model deems most probable. The expected goal count sits at 2.6, with the most likely total being two goals at a 27% chance. The single scoreline the model flags as most probable is 1-1, carrying a 13.7% probability. Bray, playing at home against a stronger side, averages 1.75 goals scored and 1.5 conceded, while UCD, on the road to a weaker opponent, averages 0.9 goals scored and 1.1 conceded. The probabilities for each outcome are 44% for a home win, 29% for a draw, and 28% for an away win. The model’s selections include Under 3.5 with a 74.3% chance and Over 1.5 with a 73.9% chance. Bray’s recent form shows a 5-match record of LLWLL, with a loss to Athlone Town 1-2, whereas UCD’s 5-match run is WDWLD, having just beaten Finn Harps 5-4. These figures paint a picture of a tight contest where the home side’s edge is clear.

Results analysis

Bray Wanderers’ win extends a recent run that had seen them slip into a slump, while UCD’s form shows a win-draw-win-lose-draw pattern after a high-scoring victory. The model predicted a home win with a 44% probability, and the call proved correct as Bray secured a 2-0 triumph. The expected total of 2.6 goals was close to the 2-goal outcome, and the most likely scoreline of 1-1 or 1-0 did not materialise. The model’s selections were largely accurate: the Under 3.5 total, with a 74.3% chance, hit, and the Over 1.5, at 73.9%, also hit. Overall, the predictions aligned well with the match’s reality.

Every selection Pythia rates above 70%, ordered by probability. Use Min odds to match the prices you want: slide down for near-certainties at short prices, up for longer prices. Unpriced picks are ranked on the model's fair odds. Edge defaults to Yes, showing only selections priced BELOW what the model makes them; switch to All to include the rest, and picks we hold no price for. The five columns are the best market prices (highest first) for each pick; edge is vs the average. Result grades each pick against the final score.
