Availability: absences are not recorded for this competition, so none is claimed.

Key players are each side's 3 with the most minutes in FA Cup 2026/27 before this match, counted from each match's player figures; a tie on minutes goes to more goals plus assists, then the name. Goals and assists are summed from the same figures. This is a count, not a judgement of quality, and no rating is used.

Statistical model

Model forecastlimited

Computed by Stadiomind’s statistical model from match data. Not a person’s opinion.

Stafford Rangers 54.1%Draw 24.4%Gateshead 21.5%

dixon-coles-elo@0.6.0v1computed

The model gives Stafford Rangers the most probability, 29.7 points ahead of the next outcome. Every outcome remains possible; these are probabilities, not a prediction of the result.

  • Expected goals 1.76 – 1.02
  • Most likely scorelines: ⁦1–1⁩ (11.6%), ⁦1–0⁩ (10.5%), ⁦2–1⁩ (9.8%)

Leading factors

  • Team strength · favours Stafford Rangers · net strength (attack minus defence) from recent results
  • Attack against defence · favours Stafford Rangers · how the sides' attacks match up against the opposing defences
  • Home advantage · favours Stafford Rangers · league-wide home advantage learned from the training window
  • No Elo prior this time: the long-term ratings were not available when this version was computed, so team strength rests on results alone.
