Where it pulls both ways. The prices and the records disagree: the odds board makes it 13% against the records' 46%. On goals, their goals for and against point to a tight game; their records put over 2.5 goals at 40%; two of the last three meetings went over 2.5.
The read. No firm call: Dalian Kun City are the better side, but not at this price. Dalian Kun City are the stronger side on form and the table; both teams' records favour Dalian Kun City; the meetings favour Dalian Kun City.
The bets. No bet on this one: too close to call. Leave: Dalian Kun City Over 0.5 goals (Dalian Kun City's own games don't back it (2 of 5)). Predicted score: Nanjing City 1-1 Dalian Kun City (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 Model's table).
