My grandfather used to say football was decided on the pitch, not on paper, and he wasn't wrong, but paper has gotten a lot smarter since his day. Fixture difficulty, recent form, head to head records, they all feed into predictions now instead of guesswork, which is roughly what https://totalover.com/ is built around, drawing on more than 2,000 competitions of historical data. Dembele posted an 8.08 rating off France's match against Morocco, Mbappe wasn't far behind at 7.81 in the same fixture. Two players, one pitch, two very different stat lines, and that's exactly the kind of detail that makes a scoreline feel incomplete on its own.
