The model’s record: ±0.1% mean calibration error across a 6M+-prediction track record (all markets, player markets included). Each match is graded on the forecasts of the one model that served it.

What the Data Says About Over 2.5 Goals
TACTIX lists 66 upcoming fixtures whose free model pick is Over 2.5, each shown with the best bookmaker price at build time. Across the whole estate the model runs at ±0.1% mean calibration error across a 6M+-prediction track record (all markets, player markets included); the record is published live, losing predictions included, on the scoreboard and as a hash-chained pre-commitment ledger, so any pick can be checked against what was written before kick-off. For this market specifically the published calibration error is ±2.7% across 102,036 settled predictions. Expected goals, venue-adjusted team ratings and market prices feed one calibrated probability per market; a prediction is a probability, never a certainty.
