The result went against our pre-match lean — a reminder that any single match can defy the model. That uncertainty is expected, not a bug.
Full-time / regulation result. Sums to 100%.
Switzerland 31%, draw 28%, Canada 41%.
This is our latest read, with current confirmed team news folded into the model (see “What we considered” below). Our track record always grades the locked pre-match call we made before lineups were posted — so this number may differ slightly from the one on the results page. We never rewrite a locked prediction.
Expected goals and control are derived estimates from the model's ratings — indicative leans, not measured match stats.
Over 2.5 goals: 48% · Under 2.5: 52%.
Every factor the model weighed for this match — including the ones worth nothing. Each is capped so it can nudge, never flip, a clear matchup. A “no change” line means we considered it and had no reliable data — that transparency is the point, not a gap.
Canada is the host nation: +55 Elo home-field advantage (applied in the goal model).
Canada hold the edge here — home advantage, a slight Elo lean, and the model gives them the nod to win. Switzerland arrive as a disciplined, experienced side who will probe and defend with care. Expect a tight, competitive game where possession matters less than who converts their chances.
Canada's attacking threat on home turf against Switzerland's compact, organised defensive shape.
Home advantage tilts this toward Canada, but Switzerland's pedigree keeps them very much in it.

Display-only — none of this is used in the prediction above.
Context only — these confirmed lineups are not used in the prediction above. By kick-off, public team news is already reflected in any market line.
Lineups not available. We only show a confirmed starting XI when we can match this exact fixture to a Flashscore event — we never guess or invent one.
Venue is shown for information only and is not used in the prediction.
Real measured stats for this match — shown for transparency. They are not part of the prediction above, which is a pre-match estimate from team ratings.
Match stats not available. They appear once a match is under way and Flashscore is carrying live stats for it — we never invent them.
Screenshot to share — the honesty note travels with it.
Predictions are estimates, not advice. WisePicks is a fan dashboard, not a betting product. The numbers come from a simple statistical model. They carry real uncertainty and can be wrong. We don't show odds or encourage gambling.

taller-than-average squad (5 tallest outfielders ~190cm vs a ~190cm field) → +0 Elo set-piece nudge. Estimated from squad height (a rough proxy, weighted toward aerial defence); modest by design.

Over 18 tournament matches: xG-for 1.78/g, xG-against 2.01/g (xGD -0.23/g, -0.5 SD vs the field). Shrunk for a 18-game sample → -8 Elo. The team ran hotter than its chance quality; a bounded, modest chance-quality nudge.
Over 9 tournament matches: xG-for 2.17/g, xG-against 2.26/g (xGD -0.09/g, -0.2 SD vs the field). Shrunk for a 9-game sample → -3 Elo. The team ran hotter than its chance quality; a bounded, modest chance-quality nudge.

Considered — deferred (0). Extreme heat/humidity mainly lowers tempo and scoring, not who wins; we don't apply it as an outcome factor.
Roofed/indoor venue — open-air weather not applied (0 goals).
Host-crowd effect is already counted inside Home advantage — not double-counted here (0).
Player availability uses a curated key-player heuristic against the confirmed starting XI (via Flashscore), not a fitted impact model. Weather is real match-day data from Open-Meteo and only nudges the goal total — its measured effect on who wins is ~zero. We only ever apply a factor on real, confirmed data; otherwise it is exactly 0.
At least one factor moved the prediction on real confirmed data; the rest were considered and contributed nothing.
