Before kickoff on ๐Odds perspective:
If youโre putting money on this one, hereโs the unvarnished truth.
Paykan F.C. at 2.64 to win feels a tad skinny given their inconsistencies in the Pro League this term. Their xG (expected goals) suggest theyโre overperforming โ stats nerds would steer clear.
Zob Ahanโs 2.92 line tempts, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his cold streak.
The smart moneyโll likely poke at the Draw 2.65 โ these derbies often play out tight, and occasion can stifle attacking flow.
