Betting Analysis
Both Teams Not To Score In 2nd Half: 88.00

Over 0.5 Goals HT: 79.90
The odds for over 0.5 goals in the first half are quite favorable, indicating expectations of early scoring. This could be due to both teams’ attacking styles or potential lapses in defense as they settle into the match.
