# Vernon at Wellington Vernon rolls into Wellington as a slight favorite in this non-district matchup, with our model giving the Lions a razor-thin one-point edge in what projects as a genuine toss-up. The prediction sits right on the knife's edge at 49% home win probability, meaning Wellington has every reason to believe they can steal this one at home. So the question for fans becomes simple: do you trust the model's lean toward Vernon, or do you fade it and back the Dukes to prove the computers wrong? Either way, this one figures to come down to the final possession.
