How it turned out
We projected about 3.2 goals; the game finished with 0. We made Over 2.5 goals 57%. It lost.
What we said beforehand
We expect about 1.8 goals from Sheffield Weds and 1.4 from Stockport, so Sheffield Weds come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 3.2 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.
Our pick: Over 2.5 goals. This should be an open game: we make it around 3.2 goals between the two (xG 1.8-1.4), landing about 60% of the time on these numbers. Both sides carry a threat, so the goals should follow.
We put the chance of that landing at about 57 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.61, which works out at about 62 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.
