Odds shown are implied by the model's own probability, not quoted from a bookmaker. Markets missing from this list are ones the numbers did not clear the bar on.

The reasoning

On the match result the model has Bendel Insurance FC at 57 percent, with the draw at 29 percent. That is a lean, not a strong one, so the draw is a live outcome here. The model expects roughly 1.4 goals from Bendel Insurance FC and 0.7 from Barau FC, a combined 2.1, which is a low total and argues against the goals markets. Four markets clear our bar on this fixture, led by Bendel Insurance FC or draw at 85 percent, Bendel Insurance FC (draw no bet) at 79 percent and Over 8.5 corners at 64 percent. The most likely exact scoreline is 1-0, though at 18.0 percent that is a long shot by the nature of the correct score market. It does not publish a pick on 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.
