Under 2.5

2.62Betano · fair 2.36 · qualifies at 2.46+ · 1.67u
Why this price?

Back under 2.5 goals at 2.62 with Betano — 2 goals or fewer in the match.

Our model puts the chance at 51% and the bookmakers' own consensus, margin removed, at 37%; we judge it at 42%, weighting the market more than the model, which is a fair price of 2.36. The offered 2.62 implies only 38%, so the price is 10.8% better than our estimate says it should be. That gap is the edge.

Stake 1.67 units of a 100-unit bank: the size follows the edge (a quarter-Kelly fraction), never more than 2 units.

Projected goals: SpVgg Greuther Fürth 1.46, Holstein Kiel 1.18.

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

Holstein Kiel +0.25

2.33BetVictor · fair 2.11 · qualifies at 2.17+ · 1.95u
Why this price?

Back Holstein Kiel +0.25 on the Asian handicap at 2.33 with BetVictor — Holstein Kiel starts 0.25 goals ahead, so a narrow defeat can still win the bet.

Our model puts the chance at 50% and the bookmakers' own consensus, margin removed, at 45%; we judge it at 47%, weighting the market more than the model, which is a fair price of 2.11. The offered 2.33 implies only 43%, so the price is 10.4% better than our estimate says it should be. That gap is the edge.

Stake 1.95 units of a 100-unit bank: the size follows the edge (a quarter-Kelly fraction), never more than 2 units.

Projected goals: SpVgg Greuther Fürth 1.46, Holstein Kiel 1.18.

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

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.

SpVgg Greuther Fürth favoured against Holstein Kiel

Our model makes SpVgg Greuther Fürth 43% to win this 2. Bundesliga fixture, with the draw at 27% and Holstein Kiel at 30%. The goal projection is 1.46 for SpVgg Greuther Fürth against 1.18 for Holstein Kiel — a clear edge to SpVgg Greuther Fürth on expected output. A combined 2.65 goals points to an open game around the league average, which puts over 2.5 at 49% and both teams to score at 54%. The single most likely scoreline is 1-1 at 13%, though no individual scoreline is ever likely in absolute terms — that is the nature of a low-scoring sport. Note that even our favoured side is under 45% to win outright, so this is a fixture where the draw does a lot of work and confident calls are not warranted. All figures come from a Dixon–Coles adjusted Poisson model fitted on recent results and expected goals. They are estimates, not forecasts of fact.
