Postmatch editorial
The scoreboard moved against the market favourite
The final score was PAOK 0-1 Anderlecht. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
Mihajlo Cvetkovic put the first mark on the match 1', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: PAOK led Total shots 16-4, even though the scoreboard went another way. PAOK also shaded Corners 5-1.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made PAOK the favourite at 61.7% implied probability. That market lean missed.
