What sits behind these numbers
Line-ups aren't confirmed, so the players shown are a likely XI from each club's recent selections — injuries and suspensions are filtered out where we know them. Hit rates are their recent form, not a forecast for this match. Taylor Gardner-Hickman joined recently, and every game behind that rate was played for Blackburn Rovers — read as prior form, not this club's.
How hit rates and windows work
Each row's hit rate is the share of a player's games in the window where the bet would have landed. These are 26/27 figures from completed matches: Last N is their last N games; Season is their whole 26/27; H2H is only games against this opponent.

Form is only half the picture. A player hitting a line 5 of 5 can still be poor value if the true chance is lower than the streak suggests. The SharpXI tool pairs every one of these with the model's real probability — and flags the runs it doesn't back, so you're not chasing a streak about to regress. That honest verdict is the layer we're building into the tool.
Hit rates are raw recent form from public match data, for context — not a prediction or a guarantee. 18+ — please gamble responsibly.
