Juventus found the margin in a finely priced match

The final score was Bologna 0-1 Juventus. The model and the market were not perfectly aligned, but one side of that divide ended up cashing out.

Juan Cabal put the first mark on the match 64', setting the tone for the rest of the night.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Bologna led Shots on target 4-3, even though the scoreboard went another way. Juventus also shaded Corners 3-4.

Before kickoff, our model made Bologna the likeliest result at 42.3%, while the median bookmaker line priced Juventus at 44.2% implied. On BTTS, the model leaned Yes (51.0%), and that angle missed.
