Gjilani upset the pre-match prices

The final score was Gjilani 1-0 Liepāja. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

Albert Dabiqaj put the first mark on the match 37', setting the tone for the rest of the night.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Liepāja led Shots on target 2-4, even though the scoreboard went another way.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Liepāja the favourite at 41.7% implied probability. That market lean missed.
