Postmatch editorial
Brescia flipped the prices on their head
The final score was Spezia 0-1 Brescia. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
Gennaro Borrelli put the first mark on the match 4', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Spezia led Corners 16-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Spezia also shaded Possession 71%-29%.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Spezia the favourite at 61.3% implied probability. That market lean missed.
