Low confidence

Why the model favours this outcome

Away defensive numbers work against Chelsea FC, who have shipped goals above the Premier League average on the road. Chelsea FC's travelling attack has outperformed the competition average. Combined attacking and defensive numbers point toward a higher-scoring game than average. Sample size is still small this season, so the model leans more heavily on longer-term ratings and lowers its confidence accordingly.
