The reasoning

On the match result the model has 1. FSV Mainz 05 at 55 percent, with the draw at 24 percent. That is a lean, not a strong one, so the draw is a live outcome here. The model expects roughly 1.1 goals from VfL Bochum 1848 and 2.8 from 1. FSV Mainz 05, a combined 3.9, which points to an open game rather than a tight one. Five markets clear our bar on this fixture, led by 1. FSV Mainz 05 (draw no bet) at 85 percent, Over 1.5 goals at 82 percent and 1. FSV Mainz 05 or draw at 79 percent. The most likely exact scoreline is 1-2, though at 8.7 percent that is a long shot by the nature of the correct score market. It does not publish a pick on match result 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.
