From the same Poisson distribution behind our 1X2 and totals numbers, built on expected goals of 1.49 and 0.88. These six scorelines cover 63% of all outcomes — the rest is spread thinly across dozens of possibilities, which is why correct-score betting is a longshot even when the model is right about the shape of the game.

Lanus vs Defensa y Justicia: match preview
Lanus host Defensa y Justicia in the Liga Profesional, and the market leaves little doubt about who it favours. Lanus are priced at 1.87 with 1xBet, which translates to an implied probability of roughly 53%, marking them as clear home favourites. Defensa y Justicia sit well out at 5.05, or around 20% in implied terms, while the draw is quoted at 3.13, close to a 32% chance. That price structure reflects a contest the bookmaker expects Lanus to shade rather than dominate. Our model steps away from the match-result market and instead looks at goals, recommending Over 1.5 goals at 1.56. That line carries a market-implied confidence of about 61%. It is worth noting the value edge on this pick sits at -4.84%, so it is not flagged as a value play but rather the model's preferred angle on the game.
