What our AI analysts say

2 of 3 think Lillestrom's chances are better than the bookmakers say. Neither makes Lillestrom favourites.

The Coach

styles in the numbers

Sociedad's leaky defence keeps this open, but their attack should decide it.

That points to goals at both ends, with Sociedad's stronger attack likely making the difference.

✓ In line with bookmakers

The Dressing Room

the table and pressure

Both sides sit on one point and need a win to stay in the knockout race.

These teams are 22nd and 23rd, each with one point from two games, just inside the play-off places but adrift of the top eight. Sociedad have played three games in 14 days to Lillestrom's two, which may temper their legs late on.

The Sceptic

where the market may be wrong

68% for Sociedad looks slightly generous given their away record.

Sociedad concede 11 in their last five away, so a smaller away edge seems fairer than the published numbers suggest.

How these numbers are made

A data-model preview uses the bookmakers' prices for this match with their margin removed by the power method. Our AI analysts read only the data (form, home and away record, head-to-head, goal timings and the table), not the team news, and they do not change these numbers. Total goals, both teams to score and likely scores come from one score grid fitted to these probabilities.
