Where our probabilities disagree with bookmaker prices.
| Market | Our model | Bookies imply | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Both Teams to Score | 48.1% | 57.8% | 10 pts under |
| Shrewsbury Win | 23.4% | 31.1% | 8 pts under |
| Over 2.5 Goals | 50.2% | 53.5% | 3 pts under |
What this means: where our model sits above the bookies is where we see value they don't; below means the market already has it priced, no edge there.
The model makes Barnet 47% favourites here. Shrewsbury carry the 23% upset.
Shrewsbury are winless in their last four; Barnet have won three of their last four. The visitors bring the sharper form into this League Two tie.
A razor-thin margin: Barnet at 47%, but the draw sits at 29%. Covering two of the three results is the sensible approach when the margins are this fine.
The bookmakers have priced this match fairly. Our model doesn't see a big edge in the match result market.
Goals are a tough one to call here. Shrewsbury are scoring 0.8 a game (0.8 of those at home) and Barnet manage 3.0 (3.0 on the road). Add it up and it's basically a coin-flip whether we see three or more, we make it 50%, so there's no strong lean either way on the goals line. Whether both teams score is a genuine coin-flip, and we make it 48%.
Both teams score in 35% of Shrewsbury's home games and 52% of Barnet's away matches. both teams finding the net isn't guaranteed.
Barnet have goals in them (3.0 per game) but their record at the back (1.5 conceded) leaves them open. This could be end-to-end.
In the last 5 meetings: Shrewsbury have won 4, Barnet 0, with 1 draw. These fixtures average 3.0 goals per game. 4 of the last 5 produced 3+ goals. Recent results: Shrewsbury 0-0 Barnet, Barnet 1-3 Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury 3-0 Barnet.
