Model insights: Real Madrid vs Sevilla
Has the model earned this number?
It puts Real Madrid at 69% here. Across 3,740 settled matches (as of 15 October 2026), 310 forecasts have landed in the 65–100% band; those outcomes actually happened 62.3% of the time, against an average forecast of 74.1%. In this range the model is over-confident, so read the figure above as optimistic rather than literal.
Every settled prediction on this site is scored against an uninformed baseline, band by band, and published whether or not it flatters the model — see the full record.

From our La Liga season simulation: the rest of the season played out 10,000 times by the same model as the prediction above. Each figure is that side's chance once this match ends in a win, a draw or a defeat for it, with every other match still left to the model.

The two sides
Real Madrid carry a model rating of 7.26 against 6.82 for Sevilla. 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 2.51 goals for Real Madrid and 0.79 for Sevilla. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.
Real Madrid rate 1.53 in attack and 0.67 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Sevilla rate 0.96 and 1.01.
The rest of the season
Across the rest of the season our simulation gives Real Madrid a 23.3% chance of the title and Sevilla 0%, from 10,000 simulated seasons.
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 Real Madrid the highest probability at 69%, based on each side's rolling attack and defence ratings estimated from recent match data. The model projects 2.51 expected goals for Real Madrid against 0.79 for Sevilla. Real Madrid's attack/defence rating is 1.53/0.67 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 0.96/1.01 for Sevilla.

Position by match
Real MadridSevilla
Real Madrid are 3rd after 8 La Liga matches (between 1st and 5th so far); Sevilla are 5th after 8 (between 1st and 7th). 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 La Liga matches this season: Real Madrid 8, Sevilla 8.
Real Madrid score most often in the 76–90 minute window (6 goals); Sevilla have let in 1 there.
Sevilla score most often in the 46–60 minute window (5 goals); Real Madrid have let in 3 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.

Each side's next matches on our board after this one. 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. A match already on our board links to its own prediction; the rest follow as their week comes up.
