Today's Picks

We pick the day's strongest 1+ and 2+ shots-on-target picks above 60%, capped at 2 legs per match. This 5-leg combo lands at ~42.4% combined on the bookmakers' fair odds (~2.36). Combined probability assumes legs are independent, in practice legs within the same match are mildly correlated, so treat the combined as a guide. Includes leagues we're still building a verified record on.

How is this built?

Shots-on-target probability comes from a Poisson model on each player's season SoT rate, adjusted for venue (home +10%, away -10%), opponent defensive softness vs the league average, and recent form. We require at least 5 league appearances before trusting the per-game rate, and we cap the per-match contribution at 2 legs so the acca isn't a one-game lottery ticket.

Combined probability assumes the legs are independent, in reality picks within the same fixture are mildly correlated, so treat the combined as a guide rather than a precise figure. This acca includes leagues we are still building a verified record on, so these legs are the model's read on the bookmakers' odds rather than tracked picks.
