Prediction Insights
The data suggests a tightly contested match with a strong possibility of low scoring, especially in the second half, making bets on defensive outcomes more appealing. The first goal occurring after the first half-hour adds an element of unpredictability, while the overall expectation of over one and a half goals indicates sporadic bursts of activity throughout the game.
The defensive strategies are likely to dominate, particularly in the latter stages, as indicated by the high probabilities of both teams not scoring in either half.
