Why the AI leans this way
Cape Verde's two draws against Spain (0-0) and Uruguay (2-2) represent exceptional overperformance from an island nation making only their second World Cup appearance, while Saudi Arabia's capitulation against Spain (0-4) and pedestrian draw with Uruguay (1-1) expose defensive fragility conceding 2.5 goals per game.
