Postmatch editorial

Hibernian upset the pre-match prices

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

The decisive turn arrived late when Callum Wright scored 90+3' for Hibernian.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Rangers led Shots on target 9-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Rangers also shaded Total shots 27-8.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Rangers the favourite at 70.4% implied probability. That market lean missed.
