The chance that the player scores at least once, overtime included: his share of his team’s goals this season (recent games count more) times the goals we expect from his team. Tested on two NHL seasons. There is no lineup feed: a player who sits out keeps his row and counts as a miss.
Who will win Sparta Praha vs Olomouc?
Sparta Praha are the pick at 76% to beat Olomouc, with a projected 3–2 scoreline.
Sparta Praha carry a clear edge into this home game against Olomouc. The model gives the home side 76% to win with overtime and a shootout included, and 66% to settle it inside 60 minutes, while a tie after three periods comes up 17% of the time. The most likely final score is 3–2, a margin that fits the gap between the two sides rather than a rout.
Form points the same way. Sparta Praha have won 2 of their last 5 while scoring 2.0 and allowing 1.8 goals a game, a modest but stable run. Olomouc have won 1 of their last 5, scoring 1.4 and conceding 3.4, and that defensive record is the biggest problem they bring into this matchup. The table separates them too: Sparta Praha are 8th, Olomouc 14th.
Adjusted for the opponents they have faced, Sparta Praha rate +0.11 goals per game against an average team and Olomouc −0.71, an edge of 0.82 goals to Sparta Praha. Home ice adds about 0.15 goals a game in this league, which pushes the gap wider still. The one recent meeting went Sparta Praha's way, and the latest finished Olomouc 2–5 Sparta Praha on 2026-09-16. The market reads it similarly: across 9 bookmakers, with the margin removed, Sparta Praha are priced at 80% on the moneyline.
Olomouc's case rests on the possibility that Sparta Praha's low-scoring form keeps this close, since 2.0 goals a game is not a heavy output. A 17% chance of a tie after regulation leaves room for overtime and a shootout, where the favourite's advantage narrows. Still, the ratings gap, the home-ice bump and the head-to-head record all point to Sparta Praha.
The projected 3–2 score leaves Sparta Praha −2.5 on the puck line landing only 36% of the time on our numbers, so a two-goal win would not be enough to cover it. The projected 5.4 goals sits just under the 5.5 line, and the under lands 55%. The moneyline is the cleaner side of this game; the puck line asks for a margin the model does not expect.
Sparta Praha to win, overtime and shootout included, at 76%, with a projected score of 3–2.
