What we think

  • SC Freiburg50% · Match result

Recommended bet: none on this match

We weighed 3 priced outcomes on this match and none of them cleared the bar we set. Most matches end here, and a page that found a bet in every fixture would not be worth reading.

Our forecast makes SC Freiburg the most likely of the three results, at 50% (we would not be surprised by anything from 42% to 57%). Most likely is not likely: at 50% this result does not happen 50% of the time. The market agrees on the result and prices it at 52%.

How the devigged price moved before kick-off

Solid: the market over 5 captures. Dashed: our forecast, which does not move. Scaled 0–100%, so a line that looks flat is a price that barely moved rather than one we stopped watching.

Gap is our probability minus the market's. A large one means we disagree with the price, not that we are right — whether we have been is published per market on the accuracy page. A market with no price is one we hold no odds for yet.
