The steppers skip 1, 2 and 4. Points come in fives, threes and twos with a conversion needing a try in front of it, so no match has ever finished on any of them.

Where that lands
Exeter Chiefs by 75+levelClermont Auvergne by 75+

13.3% of runs finished in this bin — Clermont Auvergne by 3 to 7.

53 points is around the 54th percentile of the total — the middle run scored 51.

Those two figures are separate readings and are not multiplied together. The simulation draws the gap and the amount of scoring independently, so one bar of the histogram covers many scorelines and the payload holds nothing about which of them came up with which gap.

What the model says
Clermont Auvergne 52.5%Exeter Chiefs 45.0%average 28–25

That is the model’s own average scoreline. Nothing here scores any of it. The model’s gap is an average over both winners and yours is one afternoon, so the two are different kinds of number rather than one being right. How the model works.

Why Clermont Auvergne are favoured

How the model arrives at the chance of Clermont Auvergne 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 Clermont Auvergne, a bar to the left helps Exeter Chiefs.

The fixture

Clermont Auvergne and Exeter Chiefs have no fixture on the published schedule, so there is no ground, no kick-off forecast and no team sheet to put beside this. The prediction itself does not need any of them.

4 meetings — Clermont Auvergne 3, Exeter Chiefs 1. Last 2017: Clermont Auvergne 48–26 Exeter Chiefs.

None of this reaches the model. Weather is not a feature, team selection is not a feature and the record is already inside both ratings, so the probability above does not move because any of it changed.
