What to expect
We expect about 1.8 goals from Colorado Rapids and 1.0 from CF Montreal, so Colorado Rapids come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.8 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.
Our pick: Colorado Rapids to win. Colorado Rapids are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.8-1.0), and we make them about 56% 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 55 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.62, 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.
