ÖsterCounter-attacks & crossesSofia Andersson · · How the predictions work
Ljungskile SK, with a model probability of 51%, finds itself in a favorable position against Östers IF, who come in at just 24%. This tilt towards the home side is backed by the expected goals — Ljungskile SK sits at 1.94 compared to Östers IF’s 1.36. Despite being behind on points with 23 to Östers IF's 26, Ljungskile shows more efficiency with an xPoints advantage of 26.1 to 20.3, suggesting their play has been more productive than the standings might reflect.
With the most likely scorelines pointing towards a 1-1 or 2-1 result, the game seems poised for a close contest. However, the numbers suggest Ljungskile SK is more likely to come out on top, potentially with a 2-1 scoreline. They dominate the head-to-head records since 2024, albeit from a single match, which doesn't offer much weight but provides a psychological edge nevertheless.
Östers IF's preference for counter-attacks and crosses might struggle against Ljungskile SK's possession control tactics. With Ljungskile allowing just 1.3 xGA per match compared to Östers IF’s 1.7, the visitors might find it challenging to break down the home defense, while Ljungskile seems poised to exploit their chances more fully.
The weather isn't a factor here, so the model's outlook for a game exceeding 2.5 goals at 64% likely holds water. This suggests an entertaining match with plenty of attacking action, despite potential defensive resilience.
For those seeking an intriguing betting angle, the draw offers value at odds of 4.04 with Pinnacle. The model rates a draw at 25%, which aligns perfectly with the bookmaker's odds, giving punters a chance to back a result that might just defy the expected home advantage. Still, Ljungskile SK looks the stronger side, and they might just edge a victory in what promises to be a competitive encounter.

The model gives Ljungskile a 51% win probability. Full 1X2 picture: Ljungskile 51%, draw 25%, Öster 24%.
The model's most likely final score is 1-1 at 10% probability.
The model rates over 2.5 goals at 64% and under at 36%.
The probability of both teams scoring is 64% according to the model.
The same rules as the bookmakers’ builders: legs that contradict or already follow from your slip cannot be combined — for example correct score 2–1 with under 2.5 goals. The difference is that we don’t look the rules up in a table; we compute them straight from the score matrix.
