The odds suggest a high probability for over 1.5 goals at 78.50 and over 0.5 goals by halftime at 79.90, reflecting confidence in both teams’ ability to find the net.
Over/Under Goals
The Over 1.5 Goals bet appears promising given both teams’ scoring records and attacking tendencies. With an average of 4.42 total goals per game for Sudbury and their opponents often managing to score against them as well, backing this bet seems statistically justified.
Both Teams Not To Score
The Both Teams Not To Score option is less attractive given the high-scoring nature of previous encounters involving these clubs. The odds at 51.10 reflect this sentiment, making it a less appealing choice for bettors seeking value.
Goals Market Assessment
The goal markets offer several interesting opportunities due to the attacking profiles of both teams involved in this fixture.
First Goal Timing
The First Goal Between Minute 0-29 market is priced attractively at 74.50, suggesting that early goals are likely based on past trends where both sides have shown eagerness to press early on in matches.
Last Goal Timing
Last Goal After Minute 73 is priced at a compelling rate of 55.60; considering how open games often remain until late stages due to defensive fatigue or tactical shifts towards attack later in matches makes this bet worth consideration.
Goal In Last Minutes
Focusing specifically on late-game drama: The Goal In Last Ten Minutes (50.40) and Goal In Last Fifteen Minutes (51.70) options indicate significant likelihoods for end-of-match excitement due to fatigue-induced errors or strategic gambles by either manager as they seek victory or draw preservation.
Halftime Betting Insights
Evaluating halftime betting opportunities can provide insights into expected dynamics during different phases of play within this fixture.
Both Teams Not To Score In First Half
This market offers odds at an enticing level (77.30), yet given historical data showing frequent early scoring from both sides previously mentioned above renders it less favorable unless expecting unusually cautious play initially from either team today.
Away Team Not To Score In First Half
The Away Team Not To Score In First Half market holds odds at 63.50; however based on prior analyses indicating early involvement from visiting sides when playing away suggests limited appeal here unless anticipating very disciplined defensive efforts from St Ives Town initially.
Home Team Scoring Early
The Home Team To Score In First Half option stands out with its reasonable odds (58), supported by AFC Sudbury’s tendency toward aggressive starts when aiming for positive results quickly against lower-ranked opposition like St Ives Town who might be susceptible early on without adequate preparation time before kickoff.
Overall predictions indicate confidence levels leaning towards multiple goal outcomes throughout various segments within this encounter while emphasizing strategic considerations based on detailed statistical evidence presented here.
