Ratings are our own 0-99 scale, built only from results data: ATT = 65 + 30 × log2(attack index), DEF = 65 − 30 × log2(defence index) (index 1.00 = competition average), FRM = 30 + 69 × points from the last 5 games ÷ 15, ELO = 60 + (Elo − 1500) ÷ 9, OVR = 30% ATT + 30% DEF + 20% FRM + 20% ELO. Each is capped to 1-99. The Manager style shows the same numbers on a 1-20 scale (rating ÷ 99 × 20). Ratings use only games before kick-off. Educational analysis, not betting advice.

C Palace have scored 9 and conceded 19 in 8 Premier League games (1.1 and 2.4 per game). Recent form across all competitions (oldest to newest): Spurs LLDWW, C Palace LLDLW. In the last 5 meetings on record, Spurs won 2, C Palace won 3 and 0 were drawn. The goals model expects about 1.9–1.0. Spurs are clear favorites: Spurs 58%, draw 22%, C Palace 20%. The single most likely score is 1–0, but even that only has a 11% chance. Elo ratings (Spurs 1518, C Palace 1528) give Spurs an expected score of 57%, which agrees with the goals model.
