Dortmund's top-eight chance falls after a 1-0 defeat in Bodø
Seven late Champions League finals and four Championship finals now update the recorded tables and predicted final standings. The largest Champions League swing is Dortmund: a 50.98% top-eight probability becomes 25.21% in the matched rerun.
What did tonight's results change?
- Dortmund fall from fifth to 11th in the predicted final league-phase table, with projected points dropping from 15.0 to 12.9.
- PSG's 4-2 win at Manchester City accompanies a top-eight rise from 38.86% to 60.01%. City's probability falls from 36.53% to 19.57%.
- Villa beat Fenerbahçe 6-0; their top-eight probability rises from 29.58% to 49.14%.
- West Ham win 6-0 at Lincoln. Their automatic-promotion probability rises from 38.59% to 45.32%, while Southampton's 1-0 win at Norwich accompanies a rise from 38.40% to 44.32%.
Each comparison measures the combined effect of that competition's newly completed batch. It does not attribute the whole swing to one match in isolation. The Champions League official schedule is fixed in both runs, so this is separate from the earlier schedule correction.

Nine omitted Europa League results from 17 September are now included
These matches finished on 17 September, not tonight. The lookback reconciliation found their final scores missing from our persisted forecast. They now complete all 18 matchday-one results before the next round on 15 October. This changes the forecast and current standings; no past betting pick is created or backfilled.
In the same-seed, 100,000-path correction, Celtic's top-eight probability changes from 42.48% to 18.50%. Ferencváros' top-24 probability changes from 62.91% to 86.20%. These are the combined effects of correcting all nine omitted scores.

Matched-path method and assumptions
- All three competition comparisons replay the exact previously published forecast seed across 100,000 matched paths.
- The Champions League and Championship before states leave eleven newly verified 14 October fixtures unresolved. The two early Champions League finals were already in the baseline.
- The official Champions League schedule is unchanged in both runs. This is a result-only comparison, separate from the earlier schedule correction.
- Team ratings, transfer and availability assumptions, points deductions and every other result are unchanged. Current standings describe completed results; predicted final places remain estimates.
- A separate Europa League reconciliation adds nine omitted 17 September final scores. These are a historical data correction identified on 14 October, not new 14 October matches. No picks are backfilled for these completed fixtures.
HORIZON GLOBAL 3.0 · 100,000 paths per competition. Top eight means direct Champions League progression; top 24 includes the knockout-phase play-offs. The Championship play-off band is the site's published positions 3–8.
