What to expect
We expect about 2.3 goals from Al-Rayyan and 1.3 from Al-Ahli, so Al-Rayyan come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 3.6 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.
Our pick: Al-Rayyan to win. Al-Rayyan are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 2.3-1.3), and we make them about 59% 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 57 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.59, which works out at about 63 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.
