The two sides
Bayern München carry a model rating of 7.33 against 7.12 for RB Leipzig. The scale is anchored so that an average side in one of Europe's big five leagues sits at 6.85, and it is adjusted for the strength of each team's league, so the two numbers are comparable even across borders.
The model expects goals
Under the hood the model expects 2.52 goals for Bayern München and 1.40 for RB Leipzig. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Bayern München rate 1.76 in attack and 0.68 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; RB Leipzig rate 1.33 and 0.78.
How this was produced
Publicly tracked record so far: 1,819 correct results out of 3,801 settled predictions (48%), with 383 exact scorelines (10%). That log is updated automatically after every match and is never edited.
Full method: how the model works.
From the first whistle this page keeps going: the win probabilities at the top are recalculated as the match plays out, reading the score, the clock and any sendings-off. The same model, asked how many goals are left rather than how many there will be.
Team comparison
Bars show each side's share of the two-team total, based on the model's attack/defence ratings and expected goals for this fixture.
Why the model favours this side
The model gives Bayern München the highest probability at 57%, based on each side's rolling attack and defence ratings estimated from recent match data. The model projects 2.52 expected goals for Bayern München against 1.40 for RB Leipzig. Bayern München's attack/defence rating is 1.76/0.68 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 1.33/0.78 for RB Leipzig.

Position by match
Bayern MünchenRB Leipzig
Bayern München are 2nd after 5 Bundesliga matches (between 1st and 4th so far); RB Leipzig are 5th after 5 (between 2nd and 8th). Rebuilt from the season's results after each side's matches (x-axis: that side's match number); ties split on goal difference, then goals scored.
Goals scored and conceded, by minute
All Bundesliga matches this season: Bayern München 5, RB Leipzig 5.
Bayern München score most often in the 76–90 minute window (4 goals); RB Leipzig have let in 1 there.
Each cell counts the league goals that went in during that 15-minute window. Each side's goals sit above the goals its opponent has let in over the same minutes; the darker the cell, the more goals in that window. Stoppage time counts in the last window of its half. Source: API-Football season statistics, refreshed after each league match; own goals are not always counted on the same side as in the table, so a row can be a goal off it. Context, not a prediction.

The colour is how strong the opponent is, from easier to harder as on the scale above: its model rating ranked among the teams of that competition, in fifths, so bright red is the top fifth whoever is playing it. The win figure is this side's own chance in that match, which is where venue and its own level come in.
