UTA Under 4.5 Corners -159 BetMGM logo

The 4.5 corners line has not been covered by UTA Arad in four straight away games, while the past ten Rapid Bucharest home matches have seen under 4.5 corners conceded. There’s everything to like about the UTA Team Corners line which looks too big and we’d expect them to go under at -159.
