Bettors considering this option should evaluate recent performances, particularly any changes in team line-ups or tactical approaches that could influence the outcome.
Over 1.5 Goals
With a probability of 77.70%, betting on over 1.5 goals is an attractive option. Despite Southend United’s defensive prowess, York City’s attacking capabilities suggest they might break through. Additionally, Southend’s occasional lapses in concentration could lead to goals being conceded. This prediction hinges on the potential for both teams to find the net during the match.
Under 2.5 Goals
The under 2.5 goals market is priced at 65.70%, reflecting the likelihood of a low-scoring affair.
