What our AI analysts say

2 of 3 think Raith Rovers's chances are better than the bookmakers say.

The Coach

styles in the numbers

Raith's home defence and Inverness's away leaks point to a tight, low-scoring edge to the hosts

Inverness concede 1.00 per game and 8 in their last 5 away. Both sides fail to score 27% of the time, so goals look scarce.

Raith RoversRaith: slightly underrated Fewer goalsLow

The Dressing Room

the table and pressure

Third hosts fourth with Raith five points clear and in the stronger recent run

Raith sit 3rd on 21 points from 11 games, five ahead of 4th-placed Inverness on 16. Raith have lost once in six, while Inverness arrive with two games in 14 days versus Raith's one. A home win would stretch the gap to eight points.

Inverness Caledonian ThistleInverness Caledonian Thistle: slightly overrated Low

The Sceptic

where the market may be wrong

The 38% home price looks slightly light given Raith's dominance of this fixture

Raith have won 5 of the last 6 head-to-heads with no draws, including 4-1 and 5-1 home wins, at 3.3 goals per game. Yet the total line sits at just 44% for 3+ goals and both-teams-score at 49%, which looks low against that scoring history.

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.
