57%AUSchance to win
AUS · 56.9%43.1% · RGV
  • 2 starts with a 56.9% chance to win; 18 with 43.1%.
  • In games: out of 10 like this one, 2 would win 6 and 18 4.

Confidence

low
  • The model has it close to 50-50: either result would be normal.
  • The model reads results only: it knows nothing of rosters, absences, rest or the market.

Why

  • The model looks at only two things: each team's strength from its results (with memory of previous seasons) and home court.
  • Home court is worth 4.7 probability points to 2.
  • 2 comes in with more strength from results (1547 vs 1531 strength points): that moves 2.3 points toward 2.

probability points

What could flip it

  • The model does not read the injury report and has no players inside it: an absence would change the game without changing this number. There is no calculation saying by how much.
  • What the model does not look at and this number does not capture: rest and travel, the day's injury report, the starting five and recent form.

Uncertainty

  • The model gives a number, not a band: its reliability is measured by comparing forecasts with results, not by drawing a margin.
  • It does not know injuries, rest, travel or the starting five: any of them can move this game without the number changing.
  • Over 1,519 games in 2025–2026 it did better than home court alone (Brier error 0.240 versus 0.248; 0 would be perfect).

How it is measured and limits

Model

SportiveWorld's results-based game model (Elo), evaluated out of sample in this competition: it reads each team's strength from its results, with memory of previous seasons, and home-court advantage. It knows nothing of rosters, absences or rest.

Data is up to date.

Sample · No settled games yet to measure it against.

Injuries · The model has no players inside it: it reads no absences, rosters or lineups; results only.

  • · Strength computed after the latest result consumed (2026-04-04).
