Every market we call on this match

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 Leicester City at 65 percent, with the draw at 20 percent. That is a clear lean rather than a coin toss. The model expects roughly 1.5 goals from Leicester City and 1.1 from Wigan Athletic, a combined 2.6, which is around the average for a competitive fixture. Five markets clear our bar on this fixture, led by Leicester City or draw at 85 percent, Over 1.5 goals at 81 percent and Over 8.5 corners at 74 percent. The most likely exact scoreline is 1-1, though at 12.4 percent that is a long shot by the nature of the correct score market. It does not publish a pick on 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.
