If I predict an NFL game will end up with Team A scoring 24 points and Team B scoring 21 points - how do I calculate the probability of Team A winning the game?
Also, how would I calculate the probability of Team A covering a spread of -7?
I've read that you need to take into account the total score, not just the difference between the 2 teams, in order to get an accurate probability. Can anybody tell me how to do this?
