The reasoning

On the match result it splits close to evenly, 40 percent Sutton United, 26 percent the draw and 34 percent Scunthorpe United. That is a fixture the model will not call a winner in, and the honest read is that the value sits in the other markets rather than on the result. The model expects roughly 1.5 goals from Sutton United and 1.6 from Scunthorpe United, a combined 3.0, which is around the average for a competitive fixture. One market clears our bar on this fixture: Sutton United or Scunthorpe United at 74 percent. The most likely exact scoreline is 1-1, though at 11.0 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.
