How it turned out
We projected about 3.3 goals; the game finished with 5. Both teams scored.
What we said beforehand
We expect about 2.6 goals from Toluca and 0.7 from Santos Laguna, so Toluca come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 3.3 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.
Toluca come into this on five straight wins. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.
Our pick: Under 4.5 goals. We make this around 3.2 goals (xG 2.5-0.7), so the line leaves room: it takes five or more to beat us, keeping it under more often than not (about 86%).
We put the chance of that landing at about 84 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.40, which works out at about 71 out of 100. That gap is the whole reason this is on the site: we rate it more likely than the price does, and the price looks good to us because of it.
