How it turned out

We projected about 2.5 goals; the game finished with 1. We made Over 1.5 goals 68%. It lost.

What we said beforehand

We expect about 1.6 goals from Montpellier and 0.8 from Pau FC, so Montpellier come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.5 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

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

Our pick: Over 1.5 goals. This does not need a goal rush: we make it around 2.5 goals (xG 1.6-0.8), and two is enough to land it, landing about 70% of the time on these numbers.

We put the chance of that landing at about 68 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.34, which works out at about 75 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
✓Montpellier have won two of their last five.
✓Pau FC have won one of their last five.
