TOTALS ANALYSIS (Over/Under)

Under 3.5 goals @ 1.50: our lean goes to this line, with a thin edge of +1.9 points. Our model expects 0.81 goals from Venezia FC and 2.05 from SSC Napoli, 2.86 in total: a game of two or three goals, well short of 4, where this bet loses. Recent xG created by the two attacks added together, 3.05, stays under 3.5, which points the same way.

Over 2.5 goals @ 1.74: our model leans to this line, but the price does not pay this scenario. The xG created (3.05) is above 2.5 and half of each club's last 10 matches cleared that mark, so the scenario is plausible. Over 2.5 and under 3.5 only win together on exactly 3 goals, a narrow outcome.

Over 1.5 goals @ 1.23: our model leans to this line, and the price does not pay this scenario. The goal total our model expects sits above 1.5, but the edge is negative.

1X2 ANALYSIS (Match Result)

Away win @ 1.73: our lean goes to SSC Napoli, at 67.0% in our model against 15.4% for Venezia FC and 17.6% for the draw, with a positive edge of +9.2 points. The market also makes SSC Napoli the favorite (56.5% with the margin removed). Recent xG created is close between the two attacks (Venezia FC gap of -0.07): it does not draw this gap in quality, and the model probability prevails. Recent results point its way: Venezia FC have 0 points from 15, and SSC Napoli failed to score in 10% of their last 10 matches.

Away draw no bet @ 1.29: our lean goes to this line, with an edge of +3.8 points. The stake is returned on a draw and lost if Venezia FC win.

Double chance X2 @ 1.21: our lean goes to this line, with a thin edge of +2.0 points. Two outcomes out of three are covered: the draw or SSC Napoli.

OTHER MARKETS

Both teams to score: yes @ 1.73: our lean goes to this line, with a thin edge of +1.2 points. Some data runs against it: Venezia FC failed to score in 50% of their last 10 matches, and SSC Napoli kept a clean sheet in 60% of theirs. Our model still expects 0.81 goals from Venezia FC, which leaves a goal from that club possible.
