Premier League 2026-27 · Matchday 11 · Sat, Nov 21
Every Premier League match of the matchday, forecast from the goals each club has scored and let in this season, rated against the opponents it has played, and from where it finished last season. Win, draw or loss, as chances. No betting information goes in. Tested on 5,330 league matches of 2021-22 to 2025-26, each forecast from the matches before it, the favourite won 70.4% of the matches that had a winner.
Built on the results our source has through 20 Sept; it is updated by volunteers, so the latest matchdays can arrive late and the ratings catch up when they do.

This season so far: 50 matches forecast, the favourite won 64.7% of those with a winner (ranked probability score 0.201, against 0.224 for the league’s usual shares of home wins, draws and away wins). The 50 matches played before the forecasts went live were forecast afterwards from what was known before kickoff.
Before it went live, the method was run through 10,660 league matches of ten seasons (the Premier League, La Liga and the Bundesliga, 2016-17 to 2025-26), each forecast only from the matches played before its matchday. Its two settings were picked on the first five seasons, and the table is the 5,330 matches of the five after, which it was never fitted to (2021-22 to 2025-26):
| Forecast | Winner picked right | Ranked probability score | Log loss |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ours: goals | 70.4% | 0.200 | 0.983 |
| The table (points) only | 70.6% | 0.201 | 0.984 |
| Only the league’s usual shares of home wins, draws and away wins | 59.6% | 0.229 | 1.068 |
The ranked probability score and log loss grade the chances, not just the pick: lower is better. A draw is the hardest result to call; about one match in four ends level whatever the clubs, so “winner picked right” counts only matches that had a winner.
Not in it: line-ups, injuries and suspensions, transfers, shots and chances, and the betting line.
