Netherlands v Sweden

Preview

The model favours Netherlands at 68%, with Sweden offered only an 8% chance of victory. The underdog's path is narrow, though not impossible; the model sees meaningful separation between the two sides on the supplied numbers.

The spread reflects moderate competitive distance. Netherlands' win probability exceeds the draw probability by 44 percentage points, suggesting the model expects the stronger team to prevail more often than not, but a draw at 24% remains genuinely plausible—neither outcome is remote.

Model and sportsbooks diverge notably. The market consensus raises Sweden's win probability to 18%—a gap of nearly 10 percentage points—while lowering Netherlands to 58%. Both assign similar draw odds. The dashboard does not adjudicate which assessment is more accurate; the divergence may reflect either information the model lacks or market overweighting of Sweden's chances. Polymarket pricing sits between the two sources, closer to the books than to the model.
