Captured live from the server via tools/list.

get_match_probabilities

Footdigest: calibrated home/draw/away probabilities and expected goals for a football matchup, from the backtested Dixon-Coles + Elo engine. Ask by `match_id`, or by `home_team` and `away_team` names for any matchup. Every answer is sourced and timestamped; see get_model_card for the methodology.

Parameters3

away_team	string	optional	Away (or second) team name.
home_team	string	optional	Home (or first) team name.
match_id	integer	optional	Scheduled fixture id.

get_model_card

Footdigest: the live model card behind every prediction. Returns the backtested RPS versus a naive baseline, the out-of-sample size, the calibration table, the methodology, and an explicit list of what is not measured. Use it to audit any number the other tools return.

Parameters
