If you’re backing this one, here’s the no-bull take.
JKU SC at 1.07 to win feels a tad skinny given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the Zanzibar Premier league this term. Their underlying numbers suggest they’re riding luck — stats nerds would avoid.
Malindi’s 5.9 line smells value, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his recent funk.
The wise guys’ll likely target the Draw 1.67 — these derbies often follow scripts, and pressure can stifle attacking flow.
