ACTION · EVIDENCE · CONTEXT
Usual tendency: Does not score8/9 appearances. The contexts below add detail to this reference.

Leading pattern · Does not score 7/8 · In the previous game: <3 shots Personal recurrence

Frequencies describe previous games. Cards based on the same games are not independent evidence.

How patterns are ranked

Team odds, opposition defence, venue and player sequences are compared over 12 months. Sample size, differences from other games and consistency across periods determine the order. Other players provide an additional comparison; missing peer evidence does not hide personal cases.

One or two previous cases are shown as very small samples for a current context, without determining the main tendency. A retained combination must add information beyond either condition alone. A high hit rate may still resemble the usual rate. Negative differences and later-period results are also shown. This does not establish causation or betting profitability.
