Newington Youth’s recent three-game winning streak fuels optimism, yet Ballinamallard United’s return from a defeat suggests a resilient comeback. The model favours a home win, with a 51% chance, a 23% chance of a draw, and a 26% chance of an away win. The expected total of 3.5 goals points to a high-scoring affair, and the single most likely scoreline is 1-1, with a 10% probability. Newington, playing at home against a weaker side, averages 1.25 goals scored and 1.75 conceded, while Ballinamallard, away against a stronger opponent, averages 1.15 goals scored and 2.08 conceded. The model’s selection includes an Over 1.5 with an 87% probability. The match is projected to be a 1-1 draw, but the odds lean toward a home victory. The overall probabilities remain 51% for a home win, 23% for a draw, and 26% for an away win.

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.
