How these predictions are built

Strength-reads, not posted odds

Title contenders are ranked on a blend of league-adjusted squad strength (which already folds in de-vigged group-match odds), World Cup pedigree from 42 nations’ full tournament history, the difficulty of the path (group-of-death scoring), and squad balance. The projected bracket is RotoBot’s balanced auto-fill — chalk with a pulse, where genuine coin-flips can break either way. Dark horses are the model’s call on settled sides with a soft early path, deliberately excluding the top favorites.

These are model strength-reads for forecasting, not posted betting odds or advice. Want a different outcome? Build your own bracket and drag the risk slider. Data refreshes every 15 min.
