Game Analysis

  • The market has a firm view on this one. Elgin is the shortest price on a book of 1.533 / 5.25 / 3.75 (1 / X / 2), an implied 58.8%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 58.8% / 17.2% / 24.0% on an overround of 10.9%.

  • Money has come for Elgin to win: the price has shortened from 1.69 to 1.53, a move of 10.5%. Steam like that on the day of the game usually reflects team news the wider market has not caught up with yet.

  • Fraserburgh to win has drifted from 3.69 to 4.68 (21.2%). Layers are happy to take that side on, which is worth respecting.

  • The Asian line sits at 1.00 goals, with Elgin giving the start, split 1.81 / 1.95. The handicap is the cleaner read on the expected margin here.

  • In the league table Elgin sit 20th on 0 points (0W 0D 0L) with Fraserburgh 24th on 0 points (0W 0D 0L).

  • Elgin read L-W-D-W-D-W across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (3W 2D 1L) — patchy.

  • The read: Elgin at 1.533 is the side the market is with, and nothing in the data above argues against it. The late money is pointing the same way.
