If you’re playing this one, here’s the real talk.
Spartans at 2.16 to win feels slightly short given their inconsistencies in the 2nd League this term. Their xG (expected goals) suggest they’re overperforming — stats nerds would fade them.
Stranraer’s 3.2 line smells value, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his cold streak.
The sharp players’ll likely poke at the Draw 3.28 — these big games often follow scripts, and occasion can stifle attacking flow.
