Match preview & prediction

Kauno Žalgiris are favoured to win this A Lyga clash against Šiauliai, with a 43% chance of triumph, a 29% chance of a draw and a 28% chance of an away victory. The model expects a modest 2.5 goals in total, with the most likely total being two, a 27% probability. The single most probable scoreline is 1-1, with a 13.9% chance, even though the final result last week was a 1-0 home win.

At home, Žalgiris average one goal scored and 1.5 conceded against opponents of similar strength, while Šiauliai on the road average 0.67 goals scored and 1.17 conceded. The model’s suggested picks include Under 3.5 goals at 75.9% and Over 1.5 goals at 72.4%. The team’s recent form shows Žalgiris coming off a draw, whereas Šiauliai are after two straight defeats. These figures paint a picture of a tightly contested match where the home side’s edge is just enough to tilt the odds in their favour.

Results analysis

The 1-0 win for Kauno Žalgiris extends their recent run, coming off a draw in their last match. The model’s pre-match favourite was a home win at 43%, and the call was correct. The most likely total was 2 goals, but the game produced just one, so the 2.5-goal expectation missed. The model’s selections performed unevenly: “Under 3.5” hit at 75.9% probability, while “Over 1.5” missed despite a 72.4% chance. Overall, the model nailed the outcome but overestimated the scoring potential, illustrating the fine line between accurate predictions and the unpredictable nature of match totals.

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.
