Relative to the 1500 seed that every rating begins at: -46 and +308. The model keeps one current rating per side, so these include this match. Expected goals sit at 1.01 against 3.23. 82.0% of the probability sits on a decisive outcome. 2 scorelines clear 8% individually. As a single number the model says 1-3. Barça carries the largest share, 75.0%. The higher rating belongs to the away side. Both ratings rest on a reasonable base — 44 and 57 rated matches respectively. The four component numbers read 0.91, 1.12, 2.14, 0.75. The gap between first and second outcome is 57.1 points, Barça ahead of the draw. There is no trade-off to weigh: Barça scores at the higher rate (2.14 to 0.91) and concedes at the lower (0.75 to 1.12). Outcomes span 68.0 points. No scoreline stands out; 1-3 only leads on 8.2%. The forecast we stored before the match was 7.7% / 18.3% / 74.0%. That call matched the result.
