    Our score is the one that fits the goals we expect, so it is not always the biggest percentage above: the single likeliest score is usually a low scoring draw, and even that lands only about 12% of the time. This is the model's working, not a tip. The bets it leads to are below.

    DC Belgium/Iran@ 1.21
    7/10
    Belgium averaging 3.2 GPG with form 6.89/10 face an Iran side in strong form (7.11/10) but scoring only 1.88 GPG. World Cup opener nerves and Iran's tournament resilience suggest Belgium win but not comfortably, DC Home/Away covers the 2-1 scenario at better value than straight Home Win at 1.42.

    6/10
    Belgium's 3.2 GPG suggests goals from the favourite, and Iran's away output of 1.88 GPG means they're capable of contributing. Three-goal predicted score with medium trust (6/10) points to Over 2.5 per the lookup table.

    Yes@ 2.11
    6/10
    Iran in 7.11/10 form have shown attacking capability (1.88 GPG away), and Belgium's form dip to 6.89/10 suggests defensive vulnerability. World Cup group stage typically produces open play, both teams score in the 2-1 prediction.
