The bets. Best bet: Under 3.5 Goals at 1.38, 86% on the records (FF Jaro: under 3.5 goals in 9 of 10; IFK Mariehamn: under 3.5 goals in 4 of 5 away). Backup: Under 4.5 Goals at 1.14. It often rescues the bet, but it is no guarantee. Leave: IFK Mariehamn or Under 2.5 Goals (no result call); IFK Mariehamn or Over 2.5 Goals (no overs on a tight read); IFK Mariehamn win or both teams score (no result call). Predicted score: FF Jaro 1-1 IFK Mariehamn (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 (a tight game).
