Why the model favours this outcome
Crystal Palace FC have scored at a below-average rate at home, which limits the model's home goal expectation. Manchester City FC's travelling attack has outperformed the competition average. Statistically the two sides are closely matched, so the draw probability stays comparatively high. Manchester City FC arrive in stronger recent form, which the model weights alongside season-long numbers.
