The reasoning

On the match result the model has 1. FC Köln at 51 percent, with the draw at 25 percent. That is a lean, not a strong one, so the draw is a live outcome here. The model expects roughly 1.3 goals from 1. FC Köln and 2.3 from 1. FC Union Berlin, a combined 3.7, which points to an open game rather than a tight one. Three markets clear our bar on this fixture: 1. FC Union Berlin (draw no bet) at 77 percent, 1. FC Köln or draw at 76 percent and Over 8.5 corners at 71 percent. The most likely exact scoreline is 1-2, though at 9.3 percent that is a long shot by the nature of the correct score market. It does not publish a pick on match result, over 2.5 goals and both teams to score here, which means the numbers did not clear the bar rather than that we forgot to look. A market with no pick is the model saying it sees no edge.
