Our historical data shows that a match like this has produced, in the past, a 80.2% chance of a home win, a 8.3% chance of a away win and a 11.6% chance of a draw.

Caveat – All the historical data doesn’t take account of the away goal rule, so this should explain the variance to long term results. That’s were the opportunity will lay tonight.
