Model read

Nancy versus Dunkerque on 28 August 2026 tilts towards Dunkerque in our numbers (42%), with plenty left over for the other outcomes. Our number sits above the market's 34% for Dunkerque.

History adds colour: across the last 5 meetings it is 4 wins for Nancy, 1 draws and 0 for Dunkerque at 2.8 goals per match. Verdict: no bet. Conservative ev -0.008 <= 0.

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 0.0095 (55261 matches).

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.
