Your scoreline
Fiji

Portugal

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
Portugal by 75+levelFiji by 75+

9.9% of runs finished in this bin — Fiji by 13 to 17.

52 points is around the 56th percentile of the total — the middle run scored 49.

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
Fiji 80.7%Portugal 17.0%average 32–19

Your pick agrees with the model on the more likely winner, Fiji. 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 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 Portugal.

The fixture

Fiji and Portugal 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.

3 meetings — Fiji 2, Portugal 1. Last 2023: Fiji 23–24 Portugal.

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.
