For the goals market, the fixture-specific reference is 5 qualifying games from 10 results, including Italy 2-0 and France 0-1. That rate is weighed against opponent strength, lineup information, and the reference price instead of being presented as a guaranteed trend.
The case starts with two separate score sequences: Belgium reached three total goals in 3 of 5 games, while Turkey did so in 2 of 5; another sample slice is Spain 1-2 and USA 3-2. This is a starting point for checking tempo and lineups, not a forecast by itself.
