● Our lean: away draw no bet @ 1.69 (model probability 60.2%, implied probability 59.2%, edge +1.0 pts)
● Our lean: double chance X2 (draw or away) @ 1.44 (model probability 71.8%, verified probability, implied probability 69.4%, edge +2.4 pts)
● Our model leans to over 2.5 goals @ 1.47 (model probability 66.3%, verified probability, implied probability 68.0%, edge -1.7 pts: the price does not pay this scenario)
● Our model leans to both teams to score: yes @ 1.40 (model probability 69.6%, implied probability 71.4%, edge -1.8 pts: the price does not pay this scenario)
● Our model leans to away win @ 2.31 (model probability 42.7%, implied probability 43.3%, edge -0.6 pts: the price does not pay this scenario)
● Our model leans to over 1.5 goals @ 1.15 (model probability 85.3%, implied probability 87.0%, edge -1.7 pts: the price does not pay this scenario)

GAME CONTEXT

Mainz 05 sit 6th in the table. The club has taken 7 points from 15 over its last 5 matches. In that run it scores 1.8 goals per game and concedes 1.2. Bayer Leverkusen are 4th, with 5 points from 15, 2.0 goals scored and 1.8 conceded per game over the same stretch.

TOTALS ANALYSIS (Over/Under)

Over 2.5 goals @ 1.47: our model leans to this line (66.3%, a verified probability), but the price does not pay this scenario: it implies 68.0%. Our model expects 1.52 goals from Mainz 05 and 1.86 from Bayer Leverkusen (3.38 in total). Recent xG created, 4.71 for the two attacks added together, points the same way. Bayer Leverkusen went over 2.5 goals in 80% of their last 10 matches, Mainz 05 in 60%.

Over 1.5 goals @ 1.15: our model leans to this line (85.3%), but the price does not pay this scenario: it implies 87.0%.

Under 3.5 goals @ 1.79: our model leans to this line (52.7%), but the price does not pay this scenario: it implies 55.9%. Over 2.5 and under 3.5 only win together on exactly 3 goals, a narrow outcome. Recent xG created, 4.71, sits above this line.

1X2 ANALYSIS (Match Result)

Away draw no bet @ 1.69: our lean goes to Bayer Leverkusen. Our model gives them 42.7%, against 28.2% for Mainz 05 and 29.1% for the draw. The 60.2% probability clears the 59.2% implied by the odds: the edge is thin, +1.0 pt. The stake is returned on a draw and lost if Mainz 05 win.

Double chance X2 @ 1.44: our lean goes to this line, which covers two outcomes out of three: a draw or a Bayer Leverkusen win. Our probability is 71.8%, a verified probability, against 69.4% implied: +2.4 pts.

Away win @ 2.31: our model leans to Bayer Leverkusen (42.7%), but the price does not pay this scenario: it implies 43.3%. Recent xG created sits close between the clubs, with a very slight gap toward Mainz 05 (0.15).

OTHER MARKETS

Both teams to score: yes @ 1.40: our model leans to this line (69.6%), but the price does not pay this scenario: it implies 71.4%. Mainz 05 failed to score in 25% of their last 10 matches, Bayer Leverkusen in 0%.

Devil's advocate

The scenario that sinks the away draw no bet, and the X2 double chance with it, is a Mainz 05 win. Bayer Leverkusen took 5 points from 15 over their last 5 matches and concede 1.8 goals per game in that run. That is the weak point of this read.

ProbWin verdict

Our lean goes to Bayer Leverkusen on the away draw no bet at 1.69, and to the X2 double chance at 1.44. This match carries no official pick.
