U.N.A.M. - Pumas

3.25Betano · fair 2.95 · qualifies at 3.04+ · stake 1.12u
Why this price?

Back U.N.A.M. - Pumas to win at 3.25 with Betano.

Our model puts the chance at 41% and the bookmakers' own consensus, margin removed, at 29%; we judge it at 34%, weighting the market more than the model, which is a fair price of 2.95. The offered 3.25 implies only 31%, so the price is 10.1% better than our estimate says it should be. That gap is the edge.

Stake 1.12 units of a 100-unit bank: the size follows the edge (a quarter-Kelly fraction), never more than 2 units.

Projected goals: U.N.A.M. - Pumas 1.70, Cruz Azul 1.53.

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 bet is only advised where the gap clears our threshold after allowing for model error, and those appear above.

U.N.A.M. - Pumas favoured against Cruz Azul

Our model makes U.N.A.M. - Pumas 41% to win this Liga MX fixture, with the draw at 24% and Cruz Azul at 34%. The goal projection is 1.70 for U.N.A.M. - Pumas against 1.53 for Cruz Azul — a slight edge to U.N.A.M. - Pumas on expected output. A combined 3.23 goals points to a high-tempo game with chances at both ends, which puts over 2.5 at 63% and both teams to score at 65%. The single most likely scoreline is 1-1 at 11%, 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.
