Postmatch editorial
Portsmouth flipped the prices on their head
The final score was Lincoln City 1-3 Portsmouth. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
Ryan Kavuma-McQueen put the first mark on the match 7', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The numbers leaned the same way as the scoreline: Portsmouth led Shots on target 4-7. Lincoln City also shaded Corners 8-3.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Lincoln City the favourite at 43.5% implied probability. That market lean missed.
