Match Preview

The model favours Maccabi Tel Aviv to win, projecting a scoreline of 2-1 against Sheriff Tiraspol. Maccabi Tel Aviv has shown resilience in their recent form, recording three wins, one draw, and one loss in their last five matches. This suggests they are capable of bouncing back from setbacks, which could be crucial in a knockout scenario like this. On the other hand, Sheriff Tiraspol is currently enjoying an unbeaten streak, with three victories and two draws in their last five encounters. Their consistent performance indicates a solid foundation, but they may face challenges in adapting to the competitive atmosphere at Bloomfield Stadium. According to the model, Maccabi Tel Aviv has a win probability of around 60%, while Sheriff Tiraspol stands at approximately 25%. One key market percentage to note is the expected likelihood of Maccabi Tel Aviv scoring at least two goals. However, an honest caveat is that Sheriff Tiraspol's unbeaten run could pose a significant threat, especially if they manage to maintain their form. The full method behind these predictions can be found in the "How We Reached This Prediction" section, as analyzed by The Daily Punt Analysis Team, which employs an in-house model focusing on expected goals and actual results throughout the season.

The Daily Punt Analysis Team

Data-driven football predictions and betting tips

This forecast was built by the The Daily Punt Analysis Team using our in-house statistical model. We feed the model two layers of data for every fixture: each team's recent expected goals (xG and xGA) and their actual goals scored and conceded, split by home and away venue. The numbers run through a Poisson distribution that produces a probability for every possible scoreline, which we then convert into fair odds for the 1X2, correct score, BTTS, and over/under markets.

Before publishing, we cross-check our fair odds against the prices the major bookmakers are offering. Where a bookmaker is paying out more than our model says is mathematically fair, we flag that market as a value bet on this page.
