Model readiness. Hamburger SV has played 3 league games this season, 1. FC Köln 3 league games. Until 6, a club's rating still leans on last season's data, so read early-season calls with a raised eyebrow — it is the model's most documented weakness (the fix) and it is split out on the record.
Probabilities, not selections. Every number above is read off one Dixon-Coles scoreline grid. None of it becomes a call until there is a market price to beat, the edge survives the margin, and lineups are confirmed. Nothing here is staked.

Consensus of bookmaker prices captured 2026-09-16 08:04 UTC. Refreshed each morning while the fixture is inside the four-day odds window.

Prices are observations, not offers. Each price is the average across the bookmakers the collector sees, and the implied chance is that price with the bookmaker’s margin stripped out. The market’s read is published so the model’s read can be judged against it — nothing here is advice, and nothing here is staked. Where the model column disagrees with the market, that is an observation, not advice — the model’s record, wins and losses alike, is on the record.

Where the model disagrees with the market

From the 16 Sep odds scan. Each line cleared the same two numeric bars — at least a 4-point gap between the model’s probability and the market’s margin-free price, at odds of 1.50 or better.

  • Hamburger SV over 1.5 goals — the market’s price of 2.07 implies a 45% chance once the bookmaker’s margin comes out; the model’s scoreline grid makes it 51%. A 5-point disagreement.
  • over 3.0 goals — the market’s price of 1.94 implies a 49% chance once the bookmaker’s margin comes out; the model’s scoreline grid makes it 54%. A 5-point disagreement.
  • Hamburger SV, draw no bet — the market’s price of 2.01 implies a 48% chance once the bookmaker’s margin comes out; the model’s scoreline grid makes it 53%. A 5-point disagreement.
  • Hamburger SV, draw no bet — the market’s price of 1.96 implies a 48% chance once the bookmaker’s margin comes out; the model’s scoreline grid makes it 53%. A 5-point disagreement.
  • over 2.5 goals — the market’s price of 1.60 implies a 59% chance once the bookmaker’s margin comes out; the model’s scoreline grid makes it 64%. A 5-point disagreement.
  • Hamburger SV winning — the market’s price of 2.69 implies a 35% chance once the bookmaker’s margin comes out; the model’s scoreline grid makes it 39%. A 4-point disagreement.

2 further smaller disagreements on this fixture cleared the same bars.

Disagreement is an observation, not advice. Three seasons of testing say the model has a small skill against the closing price and no profit edge — the market wins on money often enough that most of these gaps will not pay. The strongest disagreements are logged automatically to the record before kick-off and settled in public, losses included. Nothing is staked.

Availability and rotation

No recorded absences for this fixture yet. The collector refreshes availability in the final days before kick-off; an empty list this far out means no data, not a clean bill of health.
