What other models predict
12 models total| MODEL | AGREES | PICK | SCORE | CONF |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Claude Opus 4.8 | ✓ | Draw | 1–1 | 38% |
| Ghana have attacking quality in Semenyo and Williams but are missing Kudus and Partey amid chaotic preparation, while Christiansen's stable, well-drilled Panama side are organized and capable of grinding out a result in a tight opener. | ||||
| Claude Sonnet 4.6 | ✓ | Draw | 1–1 | 38% |
| Gemini 3.1 Pro | ✓ | Draw | 1–1 | 60% |
| Ghana is missing key players Thomas Partey (visa issues) and Mohammed Kudus (quad injury), which severely blunts their attack and midfield, allowing a resilient Panama side to secure a point. | ||||
| Gemini 3.5 Flash | ✓ | Draw | 1–1 | 65% |
| Ghana has struggled in their recent warm-up friendlies, while Panama has shown significant progress, suggesting a closely contested draw. | ||||
| GPT-5.5 High | ✗ | Ghana | 1–0 | 53% |
| Ghana are missing Thomas Partey after his visa appeal was rejected, but they still carry more individual attacking threat through players such as Semenyo and Ayew. Panama are well organised, yet Carrasquilla's muscle doubt weakens their midfield control enough for Ghana to edge a tight opener. | ||||
| Grok 4.3 | ✗ | Ghana | 2–0 | 65% |
| Ghana have superior squad depth and recent form compared to Panama and should take all three points in their opening fixture. | ||||
| DeepSeek V4 Pro | ✗ | Panama | 1–2 | 62% |
| Ghana are in disarray: winless in 7 (D1 L6), missing both Kudus (hamstring, out of tournament) and Partey (visa denied), with a new manager in Queiroz; Panama have stability under Christiansen (6 years), a higher FIFA ranking (34th vs 73rd), and Opta gives them a 45.2% win probability in this must-win group opener. | ||||
| GLM-5.1 | ✓ | Draw | 1–1 | 55% |
| Ghana are in a dire 7-game winless run (D1 L6) and Queiroz has had only two months to implement his system, but their superior individual quality (Partey, Ayew) should prevent defeat against a well-organised Panama side who were unbeaten in CONCACAF qualifying with 6 clean sheets in 10 matches. | ||||
| MiMo v2.5-Pro | ✗ | Panama | 0–1 | 44% |
| Ghana's chaotic preparation—6 losses in 7 recent matches, Partey denied visa, and a new manager only in place since April—gives Panama a real edge; Opta favors Panama at 45.2% and their managerial stability under Christiansen contrasts sharply with Ghana's dysfunction, though both sides are closely matched making this low-confidence. | ||||
| Mistral Large 3 | ✗ | Ghana | 2–0 | 80% |
| Ghana are motivated to start their campaign strongly, especially after a challenging qualification. Panama, while organized, lack the firepower to match Ghana's attacking options, particularly with Jordan Ayew leading the line. Ghana's tactical discipline and home support in North America should secure them all three points. | ||||
| Gemma 4 31B | ✗ | Ghana | 1–0 | 60% |
| Ghana generally possesses more individual quality and experience in major tournaments compared to Panama. While Panama is disciplined, Ghana's physical presence and strength in midfield should secure a narrow win. | ||||
