Postmatch editorial

Dender upset the pre-match prices

The final score was Dender 2-1 La Louvière. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

La Louvière struck first through Pape Moussa Fall 31', but Dender recovered and flipped the match.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: La Louvière led Shots on target 2-5, even though the scoreboard went another way. La Louvière also shaded Total shots 7-13.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made La Louvière the favourite at 39.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
