Eight runs in ten finished between 1 Fiji and 46 Fiji, half of them between 6 Fiji and 32 Fiji, with the middle run at 17 Fiji.

Those are gaps rather than scorelines. How much scoring the match produces is drawn separately — between 33 and 75 points in eight runs out of ten — so one bar covers many scores. The middle run above is 29-12 on a tight afternoon and 41-24 on an open one.

Why Fiji are favoured

How the model arrives at the chance of Fiji 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 Fiji, a bar to the left helps Uruguay.

A dash under Competition means the record does not name one, which is common — most rows on file carry no competition. None of this feeds the forecast: both ratings already contain these results.
