Postmatch editorial

The prices said close and the pitch agreed

The final score was Leeds United 0-0 Brentford. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

Neither Leeds United nor Brentford found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Leeds United led Shots on target 4-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Leeds United also shaded Total shots 14-6.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Leeds United the favourite at 42.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
