It often rescues the bet, but it is no guarantee. Leave: FK Haugesund or Over 2.5 Goals (no result call); Stabaek IF or Over 2.5 Goals (no result call); Under 4.5 Goals (no unders on an open read). Predicted score: FK Haugesund 2-1 Stabaek IF (8% chance).
Every score's chance from both teams' checked games, never cut or rescaled. The lit square is the likeliest score that fits the read (an open game).
