Each pick's figure is the one published with it before kickoff. It comes from a separate calculation, so a pick on the result can show a different number from the win/draw/win split above.

What we said pre-match

"Over 1.5 Goals projects at 80% because both sides combine for 2.97 expected goals, giving Estoril's home advantage just enough edge in a fixture where neither team dominates the xG battle."
