World Cup
Al Jazeera’s AI robot Kashef has crunched the numbers and churned out some predictions for today’s games.
Kashef, our artificial intelligence (AI) predictor, has had a tough day today. Group D delivered two shocking results on its third match day with Australia beating Denmark 1-0, and Tunisia stunning France 1-0.
For the remaining matches today, Kashef has processed the historical data and performances of all the teams participating to predict the results of each game.
Here are Kashef’s predictions:
Who: Poland vs Argentina, Group C
Where: Stadium 974
When: Wednesday, November 30, 10pm (19:00GMT)
Prediction: With Argentina second in Group C on three points, one behind the Poles, they must win on Wednesday to be sure of progressing and keeping alive their dream of a third World Cup title.
Kashef has backed the two-time World Cup winners (1978 and 1986) to beat Poland.
Who: Saudi Arabia vs Mexico, Group C
Where: Lusail Stadium
When: Wednesday, November 30, 10pm (19:00GMT)
Prediction: In their five previous World Cup outings, Saudi Arabia have qualified for the round of 16 only once, on their debut at the tournament in 1994. Kashef is predicting a close match, with Mexico just edging out The Green Falcons. A draw is also likely.
Who: Australia vs Denmark, Group D
Where: Al Janoub Stadium
When: Wednesday, November 30, 6pm (15:00GMT)
Match outcome: Kashef had backed Denmark – Euro semi-finalists last year – and 10th in the FIFA rankings to edge out the Socceroos – who are ranked 38th.
However, Australia stunned Denmark 1-0 to secure their place in the knockout stage of the World Cup for the first time in 16 years, thanks to a second-half goal from Mathew Leckie.
Who: Tunisia vs France, Group D
Where: Education City Stadium
When: Wednesday, November 30, 6pm (15:00GMT)
Match outcome: In the 92-year history of the World Cup, the tournament has featured some great shocks. Tunisia beating World Cup title-holders France 1-0 will join the list.
Kashef did not see that one coming. Unfortunately, The Eagles of Carthage will not progress to the last 16 due to Australia’s victory over Denmark in Group D’s other final fixture.
With 38 matches completed, Kashef has a 64 percent accuracy level. After every match, Kashef reruns the model to predict the outcome of the next game all the way through to the final.
Predicting match results isn’t easy. External factors like team morale or player fitness make a big difference in how the game goes.
