Why this selection?

The calculation combines each team’s recent attacking record with the opposing defence. Newer games receive more weight, and results at the same home or away venue receive extra weight.

Wales U19: (0.31 weighted goals scored + 0.92 opponent goals conceded) ÷ 2 gives 0.61 model goals, after bounding the estimate between 0.05 and 6.

Northern Ireland U19: (0.58 weighted goals scored + 3.18 opponent goals conceded) ÷ 2 gives 1.88 model goals, after bounding the estimate between 0.05 and 6.
