How it works
1. Team ratings
Team ratings are loaded from curated data sources and normalized into strength values used by the simulation models.
2. Match simulation
Match outcomes are simulated using probability models (xG and Poisson-based sampling) that convert expected goals into realistic scorelines.
3. Tournament play
The knockout tournament is played through until a champion is crowned; thousands of runs produce probabilistic predictions.
