Eight runs in ten finished between 34 Glasgow Warriors and 5 Cheetahs, half of them between 21 Glasgow Warriors and 1 Glasgow Warriors, with the middle run at 9 Glasgow Warriors.

Those are gaps rather than scorelines. How much scoring the match produces is drawn separately — between 34 and 77 points in eight runs out of ten — so one bar covers many scores. The middle run above is 26-17 on a tight afternoon and 37-28 on an open one.

Why Cheetahs are not favoured

How the model arrives at the chance of Cheetahs winning. It starts at an even 50%, and each line below adds to that or takes from it, in percentage points (pp): a bar to the right helps Cheetahs, a bar to the left helps Glasgow Warriors.
