Eight runs in ten finished between 15 Uruguay and 25 Spain, half of them between 3 Uruguay and 13 Spain, with the middle run at 4 Spain.

Those are gaps rather than scorelines. How much scoring the match produces is drawn separately — between 30 and 70 points in eight runs out of ten — so one bar covers many scores. The middle run above is 21-17 on a tight afternoon and 32-28 on an open one.

Why Spain are favoured

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