Universitatea Craiova head to Andorra as a strong favourite, and the underlying numbers back that up. In five official matches this season the Romanians have scored 12 and conceded just one, averaging 18 shots a game with 7.2 on target, and an xG of 1.86 against 0.76. Inter Club d'Escaldes offer the mirror image: nine attempts with only one on target, and in the match with xG data they finished on 0.46 to 1.45.

The prices have drifted the same way over the past day. The visitors have shortened from 1.58 to 1.54, the hosts have gone out from 6.06 to 6.52, and a one-goal handicap is now rated at close to an even chance. Our pick is the Universitatea Craiova −1 handicap at 1.94.

Where we could be wrong

The reservation is that Craiova are far more restrained on their travels: their away games run at around 2.4 goals, over 2.5 goals has come in only 20% of them, and opponents have found the net in 60%. At home Inter Club d'Escaldes almost always reply with at least one goal, and if the visitors are content to control possession on the tight pitch in Santa Coloma, a one-goal win would leave the bet with nothing.

The bet comes from the largest group of AI models pointing the same way (a home win and a home handicap count as one view), and within that group it is the bet named most often; if two groups are level, the one priced closer to the bookmakers' line is taken — how we calculate
