Value flag · 2/1 at 28.0 — our 11% vs market 1.6%. Did not land — edges play out over many matches, not one.
STRENGTH — green bars inside a box show the pattern support behind that selection, from Good · Strong · Very strong to Great — the deeper the historical record, the fuller the bar; informational, not a sized bet.
EV — the best model-vs-price gap in that group: the market pays more than our probability implies. After full time the tag settles to / . Informational, not a validated tip — edges play out over many matches, not one.
Our Pick = the most likely outcome, not a value bet.

REVIEW Cambridge United vs Wigan Athletic
IDDAAKOLIK POST-MATCH REVIEW

Cambridge United squeezed past Wigan Athletic 3-2. Half-time: 2-0. A 5-goal game — the defences never settled.

From a near-even 36% / 27% / 37% read, it was Cambridge United who turned the coin-flip their way.

Neither goals market gave much away — over 2.5 sat at 49% and both teams to score at 53%. At 1.68 (~60%), the under-2.5 price was shorter than our number — the market leaned harder than we did.

The match data tells the story: shots finished 17-18, expected goals 1.92 to 2.72 — the balance of chances actually favoured Wigan Athletic.

Coming into the game, across their last 6 meetings in our records, honours were even at 3 apiece. Scoring in those meetings ran 1.50 a game for Cambridge United against 1.17 for Wigan Athletic.
