The model and all supplied intel point to an extremely balanced match. Recent form is similar, head-to-head is ancient and irrelevant, key players are of comparable quality, no injuries are confirmed despite one news report, and conditions are neutral. Therefore I keep the model's near-even split unchanged. The model expects low scoring (xG 0.89 each), with 0-0 as the most likely single scoreline. No factor suggests a deviation from this low-goal expectation, so the scoreline distribution mirrors the model's output.
