The best betting sites make it a 60.2% chance that our pick is settled as a winner. However, we have this number closer to 70% based on our in-depth research. It’s why we think it’s worth placing this wager.

There’s an opportunity to go for a slightly different bet at similar odds. Over 2.5 Goals means you can land a return if three goals are scored and you don’t need both teams to score.
