Right call — France through (won 2–0).
A knockout can't end level. This is each side's chance to go through — win in 90 minutes, in extra time, or on penalties. It's a different question from the win probability above, which is who wins the match in regulation.
Heads up: this tie has a real chance (about 15%) of going to penalties, and a shootout is close to a 50/50 — they're near-random, so we don't pretend to call them. The deeper a tie goes, the more it's a coin flip.

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.
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.
Neutral venue — no host, no home-field advantage (0).
France hold a clear edge in pedigree and control, yet this model carries genuine uncertainty—a volatile knockout where Morocco's counter-threat and the draw's stubborn shadow loom large. Expect France to dominate possession and territory; Morocco will hunt for the break.
France's midfield dominance versus Morocco's ability to compress space and spring transitions on the counter.
The model's low confidence signals that a quarter-final between these sides is far tighter than Elo gaps suggest—Morocco's organisation and desperation can upset the script.

taller-than-average squad (5 tallest outfielders ~192cm vs a ~190cm field) → +4 Elo set-piece nudge. Estimated from squad height (a rough proxy, weighted toward aerial defence); modest by design.
shorter-than-average squad (5 tallest outfielders ~188cm vs a ~190cm field) → -3 Elo set-piece nudge. Estimated from squad height (a rough proxy, weighted toward aerial defence); modest by design.
Over 24 tournament matches: xG-for 1.92/g, xG-against 1.48/g (xGD +0.44/g, +0.7 SD vs the field). Shrunk for a 24-game sample → +11 Elo. The team created better chances than it converted; a bounded, modest chance-quality nudge.
Over 14 tournament matches: xG-for 1.44/g, xG-against 1.16/g (xGD +0.28/g, +0.4 SD vs the field). Shrunk for a 14-game sample → +6 Elo. The team created better chances than it converted; 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.
Considered — no weather data for this venue/date (0). Weather only nudges the goal total; it does not move who wins.
Considered — no reliable neutral-venue crowd-composition data (0). We won't fabricate a partisan-crowd estimate.
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.
