Couchcall score 0 to 100: how much a neutral should want this game. Built from the pre-game forecasts (how close it is and how many goals or points are expected), the strength of both teams, what the result decides in the table or the rankings, rivalry and recent form.
Verdicts for finished games come from how the game moved, the win-probability chart where one exists and the goal timeline where it does not, and never show a score. Calendar links open Google Calendar with the start time in your own timezone.
TV listings follow the market picked at the top: this season’s rights holders from a table kept by hand and reviewed monthly, and in the US the network listed for the game. Without scripts every market shows in one line.
