Newcastle Falcons

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
Newcastle Falcons by 75+levelBristol Rugby by 75+

9.6% of runs finished in this bin — Bristol Rugby by 18 to 22.

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

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
Bristol Rugby 86.9%Newcastle Falcons 10.6%average 37–18

Your pick agrees with the model on the more likely winner, Bristol Rugby. 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.

How the model arrives at the chance of Bristol Rugby 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 Bristol Rugby, a bar to the left helps Newcastle Falcons.

The fixture

Bristol Rugby and Newcastle Falcons 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.

16 meetings — Bristol Rugby 12, Newcastle Falcons 4. Last 2026: Newcastle Falcons 19–52 Bristol Rugby.

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.
