The November window is halfway. UEFA and CAF stand for their final group matches where the remaining decisions will fall.
On request is here an update of the simulations for the qualification of the World Cup 2022 in Qatar after yesterday's matches.
Denmark and Germany were already qualified. Belgium, France and Brazil joined them last week. In these simulations also England and Argentina are 100% qualified now.
Here are the probabilities (in %) -generated over 10.000 simulations- with all match-results based on NT prediction formula's for goals scored in a match depending on elo win expectancy. The simulations include all scheduled World Cup qualifiers, the AFCON 2021 and all currently scheduled friendlies (including the Arab Cup).
First the group stage of the qualification for the World Cup. The teams are ordered by their average group position:

About me:
Software engineer, happily unmarried and non-religious. You won't find me on Twitter or other so called social media. Dutchman, joined the blog in March 2018.
Thanks Ed
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, ted ! (3x)
ReplyDeleteThx, Ed!
ReplyDeleteThere is a large difference between your percentages and the bookies' regarding 1st spot in UEFA group C, yours 52/48 and the bookies' 73/27.
Can you explain why?
I don't know their approach. Mine is based on scored goals for a team, dependent on the elo win expectancy.
ReplyDeleteNIR-ITA We = 0.11; SUI-BUL We = 0.95. The number of scored goals at very high We's tend to climb a bit faster than the number of scored goals for away playing teams with very low match We's (for the home team, that is).
So my model expects Switzerland to score more goals than Italy, based on both the match We's itself (95% vs. 89%) and on the curve of the probability distribution. That makes the result of this fight something of a coin toss as Switzerland in most cases only needs two more goals than Italy scores.
In case the results are f.i, NIR-ITA 0-1 and SUI-BUL 3-0 then Switzerland has already the upper hand because of the deciding tiebreaker rule 'away-goals scored in both matches with Italy'.
Hi Ed.... - impatiently waiting for your simulation update tomorrow. :-)
ReplyDeleteEspecially regarding Denmark's top seed percentage for the WC draw in april, - it must below 1% now with last night's defeat at Hampden Park.
Henrik, that won't be tomorrow, but at the weekend at the earliest :)
DeleteYeah, Denmark's pot 1 chances should be minimal now, if existent at all.
But who's gonna get the final pot 1 spot if Italy fails to qualify depends of course a bit on which ranking FIFA decides to use as the seeding ranking: February or March or maybe an even earlier one. As long as that's not clear, I assume March because that's the most logical one for me.
But in any case: sorry to say but it won't be Denmark :)
but if not Italy, not Portugal, not Denmark --- the lucky wnner will be Germany
DeleteEverything points in that case to one of the CONCACAF top dogs: Mexico or USA.
DeleteWell, Ed.... - both Italy and Portugal can fail in the european playoffs in March. Then Denmark is 7th with Mexico and USA as dark Horsens.... - as you mention.
DeleteStill dreaming, you know.... :-)
*horses.... ;-)
DeleteDo you know which fifa ranking will be used for the final World Cup draw in April 22? Thanks
DeleteSee my reply above (16 Nov 10:14 AM).
DeleteDenmark (9th), Holland (10th), Switzerland (14th) and Germany (12th) are all within 12 points of each other, so they all have a fair chance at that 7th spot, provided Italy AND Portugal fail to qualify, and Mexico (11th) - and maybe USA - doesn't do too well in the remaining qualifier games they have. Note that Denmark and Holland are now less than a point apart, so it will also matter who they play in the March friendlies.
ReplyDeleteActually, USA is above Mexico now.
ReplyDeleteEd, when you redo your analysis this weekend you will give percentage for Croatia to remain in Pot 2 correct? thanks!
ReplyDeleteIt would have to be high now that only one of Portugal and Italy can qualify for the World Cup.
DeleteSouth American qualifying in January/Feb will be key.
