Our prediction
Under 3.5 goals · Total goals
Emil considers 1.70 for under 3.5 goals very good value in a match that could be close and that neither team can afford to lose. He points to goal averages of 2.0 and 3.2 per match respectively, compared with xG averages of 3.2 and 3.6. This is Emil's assessment – the xG figures alone do not make backing the under a safe bet.
