Why this pick: Everton vs Ipswich
Model inputs: per-match averages over each side's last 10 played matches (Everton 10, Ipswich 10). PPDA — lower means more intense pressing.
xG and npxG (non-penalty) per match, deep completions (passes received within ~20 yards of goal) and xPTS (expected points) from Understat match data. Bold marks the stronger side on each line.
