over_under_2_5 β over@ 3.55
EV: 12.8%
Model probability for over 2.5 goals (0.41) is higher than the implied probability from odds (0.282), providing a positive expected value. While both teams have shown some defensive improvement recently, Manchester United's home scoring and Leeds' defensive vulnerabilities suggest a fair chance of 3+ goals.
1x2 β home@ 1.2
Manchester United have a strong home record (10W/3D/2L), are in better form, and Leeds have just 1 away win all season. The model gives a 68% win probability, close to the implied probability, so value is marginal but confidence in the home win is high.
btts β no@ 1.22
EV: -4.0%
Leeds have failed to score in 4 of their last 5 games and Manchester United have improved defensively at home. Model sees 78% chance of BTTS 'no', but the value is slightly negative at current odds.
