Model read
The model reads this as a near coin-flip. With Elo 77 points apart (United States 1879, Australia 1956), it estimates 37% / 26% / 36% (home win / draw / away win) and a most-likely 1–1, with both teams to score 53% likely.
A strength-only Elo estimate — it doesn't account for lineups, injuries, form or weather.
