AS Roma

2.86Marathonbet · fair 2.58 · qualifies at 2.66+ · 1.43u
Why this price?

Back AS Roma to win at 2.86 with Marathonbet.

Our model puts the chance at 46% and the bookmakers' own consensus, margin removed, at 34%; we judge it at 39%, weighting the market more than the model, which is a fair price of 2.58. The offered 2.86 implies only 35%, so the price is 10.7% better than our estimate says it should be. That gap is the edge.

Stake 1.43 units of a 100-unit bank: the size follows the edge (a quarter-Kelly fraction), never more than 2 units.

Projected goals: Manchester United 1.90, AS Roma 2.22.

The edge is an estimate and carries model error; it can be wrong, and a losing run is normal.

1.57Betano · fair 1.47 · qualifies at 1.53+ · 2.00u
Why this price?

Back over 2.5 goals at 1.57 with Betano — 3 goals or more in the match.

Our model puts the chance at 78% and the bookmakers' own consensus, margin removed, at 61%; we judge it at 68%, weighting the market more than the model, which is a fair price of 1.47. The offered 1.57 implies only 64%, so the price is 6.7% better than our estimate says it should be. That gap is the edge.

Stake 2.00 units of a 100-unit bank: the size follows the edge (a quarter-Kelly fraction), never more than 2 units.

Projected goals: Manchester United 1.90, AS Roma 2.22.

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

AS Roma favoured against Manchester United

Our model makes Manchester United 34% to win this UEFA Champions League fixture, with the draw at 21% and AS Roma at 46%. The goal projection is 1.90 for Manchester United against 2.22 for AS Roma — a clear edge to AS Roma on expected output. A combined 4.12 goals points to a wide-open game that could get away from either side, which puts over 2.5 at 78% and both teams to score at 76%. The single most likely scoreline is 1-2 at 8%, 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.
