Postmatch editorial

Rodez upset the pre-match prices

The final score was Nantes 2-5 Rodez. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

Nantes struck first through Killian Corredor 4', but Rodez recovered and flipped the match.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Nantes led Possession 58%-42%, even though the scoreboard went another way. Rodez also shaded Corners 4-6.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Nantes the favourite at 55.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
