Model read

Little between these two in the data. Tottenham at 38% is as close to a call as the model will offer for 19 September 2026. The numbers that frame it: • No strong lean on goals (48% Over 2.5). The interest, if any, lives elsewhere. • For shots markets, Omar Marmoush is the obvious watch at 1.5 on target per 90 in recent data. • Recent form reads W1 D2 L3 for Tottenham against W2 D1 L3 for Aston Villa. Squad notes: Tottenham have Tonali a doubt, Vicario ruled out, Pedro Porro a doubt, Romero ruled out. History adds colour: across the last 5 meetings it is 3 wins for Tottenham, 0 draws and 2 for Aston Villa at 3.4 goals per match. Discipline says sit it out: no bookmaker price published for this match yet.

Lower-probability calls our model rates above the obvious price; random finds are high-return scorelines that can happen. Higher risk, not a tip; we never beat the sharp market.

Recent shot volume

Tottenham13.5 taken13.0 faced

Shots taken and faced per game over each side’s last 6 matches, from real match data.

First half / second half shots

Tottenham (4 games)

5.5 / 7.5

Aston Villa (4 games)

4.8 / 3.8

Shots taken before and after half-time, per game, over the games in brackets. The bar is the share taken in the first half. This is Understat shot data with the half-time split verified against the half-time score, counted separately from the match shot totals above, so the two can differ. A match where the split could not be verified is left out rather than guessed.

How this works (honestly)

We are transparent about our method, our limits and how we measure performance.

What we use

Results, odds & closing prices, xG, shots, lineups, referee and schedule load.

Our method

Dixon-Coles + an xG strength model + champion/challenger selection + probability calibration + a trust gate.

What we don’t do

We do not beat the sharp market. The value is honest probabilities, No-bet calls and CLV.

Performance snapshot

Top-pick hit rate 47.7% (reliability, not edge). Calibration error 0.0096 (55405 matches).

More: Tottenham predictions · Aston Villa predictions · Premier League

Not financial advice. No model beats the sharp closing market on public data. The value here is honest probabilities, No-bet calls, and CLV history.
