Postmatch editorial
The pre-match tension never quite broke

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Accrington Stanley led Total shots 12-9, even though the scoreboard went another way. Accrington Stanley also shaded Shots on target 6-5.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Accrington Stanley the favourite at 48.8% implied probability. That market lean missed.
