Each outcome is counted from Northern Ireland's side: “Won” means Northern Ireland won, whether it played at home or away. The 30-day average uses all matches we covered and is only shown where the outcome is the same for both teams, such as over 2.5 goals or both teams scoring.

A high figure describes what has happened before. It is not a forecast of the next match.
