    Yes@ 1.49
    6/10
    We give Liverpool 78% to score and Manchester City 79%, so both finding the net comes out at 61%.

    Top Pick is the card that stands out most against what its market usually offers, so it is rarely the shortest price here and not always the best rated. Banker is the shortest price under 1.25, and Value the longest over 1.60. Every one is published before kickoff and settled in public.

    The market rates Liverpool at 32%, so we are 5 points higher than the price implies.

    Our own numbers, from the goal rates the model fits for each side.

    We expect around 3.1 goalsWe make it 1 - 2

    Our score is the one that fits the goals we expect, so it is not always the biggest percentage above: the single likeliest score is usually a low scoring draw, and even that lands only about 12% of the time. This is the model's working, not a tip. The bets it leads to are above.

    Where those opponents sat in the table: strong means they averaged roughly the top 40%, weak roughly the bottom 40%, mixed in between.

    Opposition faced: Liverpool weak, Manchester City weak

    The form score weights every result and every goal by where the opponent sat in the table, so five wins over the bottom of the table score below five over the top.
