Both Teams Not To Score In 2nd Half
With odds standing at 98.20 for both teams not to score in the second half, this bet appears lucrative. Historically, matches between these teams have seen fewer goals as the game progresses, often due to increased tactical adjustments and fatigue setting in. The likelihood of a goalless second half is high, especially if the first half ends similarly.
Both Teams Not To Score
The overall probability of neither team scoring is reflected in the odds of 65.00. This market is particularly attractive given the defensive nature of both teams and their recent performances. The average total goals per match (2.80) suggests that while goals are likely, they may not come from either side.
Goals Market Assessment
Under 2.5 Goals
The under 2.5 goals market is priced at 72.30, indicating strong confidence in a low-scoring game. Both teams’ defensive records and the historical trend of low-scoring encounters make this bet compelling. The statistical likelihood of fewer than three goals aligns with past performances and current form.
Over 1.5 Goals
Despite the strong defensive trends, the over 1.5 goals market at 64.50 remains a viable option due to Maksimir Zagreb’s attacking potential and occasional lapses in NK Gaj Mace’s defense. While a low-scoring game is probable, at least one goal from either side is likely, making this bet a reasonable consideration.
In conclusion, based on the data and analysis provided, betting on both teams not scoring in either half or throughout the match appears to be the most prudent choice, given the defensive strengths and historical trends. However, for those willing to take a calculated risk on goal involvement, betting on over 1.5 goals could offer value.
