Ipswich Town solid to the last match played, dashed for the forecast. Rivals are dotted throughout, with a dot on their last match played. The white lines are the ones a season is played against – the title, the Champions League places, Europe, and the drop.

Real results so far plus a called outcome for every match still to play, recalculated as results come in. Drawn beside them are the clubs they are actually racing: their usual rivals, and whoever this season has put them in the same fight with. Point at any gameweek for every club's position and points.

The key stat: Elo performance. This is where the two sides are furthest apart. Manchester City come out on top, Exceptional against Weak. When this gap appears, the side carrying the stronger record tends to win, in around 74% of cases. Those underneath were selected on the same basis.

  • WhyThe call rests on the long-run strength gap, home advantage and what this eleven creates – the strongest pull the other way is a cup tie in the other side's legs.

The key stat: XI defensive record. Of everything on this page, this is the biggest difference. Tottenham Hotspur come out on top, 1.27 against 1.76. Historically, the side with the steadier back line takes these roughly 74% of the time. Those underneath were selected on the same basis.

  • The callTottenham Hotspur to win: 50% against 25%, with the draw at 25%. Confidence fair.
  • WhyThe call rests on home advantage, the long-run strength gap and the defence in front of them – the strongest pull the other way is recent shots on target.
  • For Tottenham HotspurXI defensive record 1.27 v 1.76 (decisive); Defence 1.13 v 1.88 (decisive); GK save rate 65% v 58% (clear).
  • For Ipswich TownShots on target 4.2 v 3.5 (slight); Goal difference -0.40 v -0.60 (marginal).

The whole season

All 38 of Ipswich Town's league matches, what we said would happen, and – where it has been played – what actually did. We have called 4 of 7 of their decided matches so far. Rows marked projected are today's model looking ahead: they move every time the season is re-projected, so they are not frozen and are never graded. Everything else is the call we published before kick-off.
