Strategy Tip:
  1. Start with the market that matches the strongest evidence: if one side has scored 2+ in the latest 3 games, check that team's Over 1.5 before full-match overs.
  2. Home Venue / Away Venue means points form in this exact role. Home Venue is how the home team performs at home; Away Venue is how the away team performs away. A strong venue number plus strong team goals is a better signal.
  3. Team Goals H 2 / A 0.88 is the expected scoring strength for each team. Around 1.5+ is worth checking Over 1.5; around 2.3+ is a stronger goal-machine profile.
  4. If the pick is not obvious, prefer protection: Double Chance or lower goal lines beat forcing a winner.
Home Venue: 0.6 Away Venue: 1.4 Team Goals H 2 / A 0.88
