If you’re playing this one, here’s the unvarnished truth.
Sl Benfica (Dempsey) at 2.25 to win feels tight given their inconsistencies in the GT Leagues (2x6 min.) this term. Their underlying numbers suggest they’re due a regression — analytics guys would avoid.
Arsenal (Potter)’s 2.7 line tempts, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his cold streak.
The smart money’ll likely poke at the Draw 3.5 — these derbies often play out tight, and nerves can kill attacking flow.
