LOSC Lille flipped the prices on their head

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

Denis Zakaria  put the first mark on the match 72', setting the tone for the rest of the night.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Monaco led Corners 5-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Monaco also shaded Shots on target 3-2.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Monaco the favourite at 39.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
