Probabilities are for 90 minutes only — extra time and penalties are not modelled.

Why the AI leans this way
Manchester City arrive at Stamford Bridge having won four of the last five head-to-head meetings, including a 3-0 thrashing at this venue in April 2026, and their recent 2-1 home victory over Bournemouth suggests they've rediscovered winning rhythm after a mid-August wobble.
