Each pick's figure is the one published with it before kickoff. It comes from a separate calculation, so a pick on the result can show a different number from the win/draw/win split above.

What we said pre-match

"Over 1.5 Goals is the model's 80% call, driven by Heerenveen's 0.45 xG advantage and 47% win probability that should produce multiple scoring chances across the ninety minutes."
