Postmatch editorial

Everton upset the pre-match prices

The final score was Everton 3-0 Chelsea. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

The decisive turn arrived late when Iliman Ndiaye scored 76' for Everton.

The numbers leaned the same way as the scoreline: Everton led Shots on target 9-4. Chelsea also shaded Corners 3-9.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Chelsea the favourite at 44.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
