GAME CONTEXT
Los Angeles Galaxy has taken 10 points from 15 over its last 5 matches. It scores 1.8 goals per game and concedes 1.8 over that stretch. Portland Timbers has taken 4 points from 15 over its last 5 matches. It scores 1.8 goals per game and concedes 2.4 over that stretch.
TOTALS ANALYSIS (Over/Under)
Under 3.5 goals @ 1.85: our lean goes to this scenario (model probability 61.2%, implied probability 54.1%, edge +7.1 pts). Our model expects 1.74 goals for Los Angeles Galaxy and 1.54 for Portland Timbers: an open game, but it has to stop at 3 goals or fewer for the Under 3.5 to win. Recent xG created by the two attacks added together (2.97) sits below the line. Some numbers cut against this read: Portland Timbers has gone over 2.5 goals in 80% of its last 10 matches, Los Angeles Galaxy in 60%.
Over 2.5 goals @ 1.40: our model leans this way (model probability 64.0%, implied probability 71.4%), but the price does not pay this scenario. That probability is verified over two test seasons of MLS; it is neither a guarantee nor an edge on the price. The xG created (2.97) is above the 2.5 line. Over 2.5 and Under 3.5 only win together on exactly 3 goals, a narrow outcome.
Over 1.5 goals @ 1.13: our model leans this way (model probability 82.1%, implied probability 88.5%), but the price does not pay this scenario.
1X2 ANALYSIS (Match Result)
Los Angeles Galaxy win @ 2.11: our model leans this way (40.5%, against 47.4% implied probability); the price does not pay this scenario. Our model gives 27.6% to the draw and 31.8% to Portland Timbers. The market also makes Los Angeles Galaxy the favorite, at 46.2% with the margin removed. Los Angeles Galaxy has taken 10 points from 15 over 5 matches, Portland Timbers 4.
Los Angeles Galaxy draw no bet @ 1.55: our model leans this way (56.0%, against 64.5% implied probability); the price does not pay this scenario. The stake is returned on a draw and lost on a defeat, however narrow.
Double chance 12 @ 1.25: our model leans this way (72.4%, against 80.0% implied probability); the price does not pay this scenario. It wins if either club wins and loses on a draw.
OTHER MARKETS
Both teams to score: yes @ 1.40: our model leans this way (model probability 64.8%, implied probability 71.4%), but the price does not pay this scenario. That probability is verified over two test seasons of MLS, with no guarantee. Portland Timbers has failed to score in 10% of its last 10 matches, Los Angeles Galaxy in 40%.
The scenario that sinks the Under 3.5 is a game of 4 goals or more. Portland Timbers concedes 2.4 goals per game and has gone over 2.5 goals in 80% of its last 10 matches. We accept that risk, because Los Angeles Galaxy has failed to score in 40% of its last 10 matches.
Our lean goes to under 3.5 goals @ 1.85, a reading and not a firm bet. The other lines are readings where the price does not pay the scenario.
