Olot flipped the prices on their head

The final score was Poblense 1-2 Olot. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

Jordi Xumetra put the first mark on the match 38', setting the tone for the rest of the night.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Poblense led Shots on target 4-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Poblense also shaded Corners 3-2.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Poblense the favourite at 41.5% implied probability. That market lean missed.
