What to expect
We expect about 1.3 goals from Aucas and 1.1 from Barcelona SC, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 2.4 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.
Our pick: Aucas to win. Aucas are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.3-1.1), and we make them about 41% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.
We put the chance of that landing at about 39 out of 100. The price on offer is 2.15, which works out at about 47 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.
What the numbers say
✓Aucas are unbeaten in their last three — two wins and one draw.
✓Barcelona SC have won two of their last three.
