Synthesis: A home win, but thinner than the cluster suggests
All four models land on a Midtjylland home win, and the line movement (1.83 → 1.75 on the home side, Beşiktaş drifting 3.90 → 4.10) confirms informed money reads this the same way. But the agreement is directional, not proportional: the structural reality is that Beşiktaş carry a 1-0 aggregate lead and only need a draw, which keeps the draw probability substantial and caps how high any honest home-win confidence should go. The market's de-vigged home price (~52%) is a reasonable anchor, and the models' own estimates (45–56%) bracket it. Calibrating for the favourite-leaning bias in the base models and the genuine draw tail, the home win sits around 48%, not the 53–56% the more confident models assert.
Resolving the scoreline disagreement
The models split three ways on the score: 1-0 (GPT-5.6 and Kimi K3), 2-0 (Claude), and 2-1 (GLM). Weighting by track record matters here. GPT-5.6 is the clear top performer across both windows (51% result accuracy, +22.8% ROI over 30 days, and still +20.5% ROI in the volatile 7-day window), so its read carries the most signal. Kimi K3, despite weaker accuracy, independently converges on the same 1-0. Claude and GLM are less reliable on recent form (Claude's 7-day ROI is −22.4%; GLM's is −11.6%), and their higher-scoring calls lean on a more aggressive home performance that the game state doesn't strongly support.
The decisive logic favouring 1-0 is incentive-based: with the away-goals rule abolished, a one-goal Midtjylland win only sends the tie to extra time — it does not settle anything. That gives Beşiktaş no reason to chase, and gives Midtjylland no reason to over-commit once level. A controlled, territorial home performance with one breakthrough (most likely from sustained pressure, a set piece, or a second-ball scramble) is the cleanest single scenario.
