The bets. No bet yet: nothing I'd back is priced yet. Leave: Danubio FC or Over 1.5 Goals (no overs on a tight read); Danubio FC Over 0.5 goals (Danubio FC's own games don't back it (3 of 7)); Danubio FC 1UP (the signs point different ways). Predicted score: Central Espanol FC 1-1 Danubio FC (13% 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 (the call and a tight game).
