A positive gap means our probability is higher than the price implies. That is information, not a recommendation: a bet is only advised where the gap clears our threshold after allowing for model error, and those appear above.

Grimsby favoured against Shrewsbury

Our model makes Grimsby 60% to win this League Two fixture, with the draw at 24% and Shrewsbury at 16%. The goal projection is 1.82 for Grimsby against 0.85 for Shrewsbury — a commanding edge to Grimsby on expected output. A combined 2.67 goals points to an open game around the league average, which puts over 2.5 at 50% and both teams to score at 49%. The single most likely scoreline is 1-0 at 12%, though no individual scoreline is ever likely in absolute terms — that is the nature of a low-scoring sport. This sits in the awkward middle of the distribution, where the model has a view but not a strong one. All figures come from a Dixon–Coles adjusted Poisson model fitted on recent results and expected goals. They are estimates, not forecasts of fact.
