What to expect

We expect about 1.1 goals from Al-Mosul and 0.9 from Al Naft, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 2.0 goals in the game, so we are braced for a tight one where good chances are rare.

Al-Mosul come into this on two straight defeats. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.

Our pick: Draw. There is very little between these two (xG 1.0-0.9), and a share of the spoils is a real possibility at around 38%. When sides are this evenly matched, the draw is worth respecting.

We put the chance of that landing at about 36 out of 100. The price on offer is 2.90, which works out at about 34 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.

What the numbers say
Al Naft have won two of their last three.

Al Talaba are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.6-0.7), and we make them about 58% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.
