Goalence's Pi-Ratings model gives Belgium a clear edge against New Zealand in World Cup — 61% confidence (SOLID tier) with an expected scoreline of 1-2.

How the Model Works

We use an iterative Pi-Ratings model: each team has separate home and away attack/defense ratings, updated after every match. Lambda values are converted to outcome probabilities via Poisson distribution. Match result, over/under, and BTTS predictions are all derived from a single coherent model.
