Clean Sheet Predictions

A clean sheet bet asks whether a specific team will not concede any goals during the match. Bookmakers offer Home Clean Sheet (home team concedes nothing) and Away Clean Sheet (away team concedes nothing), each as Yes/No. A goalless draw means both clean sheets are achieved simultaneously. Home Clean Sheet Yes occurs in roughly 35–40% of top-league matches. Away Clean Sheet Yes is rarer — around 25–30% — because home teams score more often. Both are directly related to BTTS: if BTTS Yes lands, neither clean sheet lands; if BTTS No lands, at least one clean sheet must land. Clean sheet prediction is the inverse of scoring probability. Sportdico models the probability that each team scores at least one goal (P(score ≥ 1)); the clean sheet probability for the opposing team is the complement of that. Our model already computes this implicitly within the BTTS calculation. Surfacing it as an explicit clean sheet tip is planned — particularly useful for matches involving the league's strongest defensive sides facing below-average attacks.
