The model’s selection includes an 80.2% chance of Over 1.5 goals. The recent form narrative highlights Yverdon’s unbeaten run of five games, including a 2-1 win over Neuchatel Xamax FC, while Neuchatel Xamax FC have recovered from three straight defeats with a 1-2 loss to Yverdon Sport.
Results analysis
The pre-match favourite, Yverdon Sport, fell short as the match finished 2-2, a draw that surprised the model’s 57% home-win prediction. The model’s call was therefore wrong. The final score of 2-2 matched the actual result, a draw, and the model’s single suggested pick, Over 1.5, hit with an 80.2% probability. Yverdon’s unbeaten run of five games, highlighted by a 2-1 win over Neuchatel Xamax FC, had built confidence, while Neuchatel’s recent form of three straight defeats before a 2-1 win added intrigue. The match delivered a tidy 2-2 scoreline, confirming the model’s Over 1.5 selection and underscoring the unpredictability of the Challenge League.

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.
