Sunderland flipped the prices on their head
The final score was Sunderland 1-0 Tottenham Hotspur. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Tottenham Hotspur led Shots on target 2-7, even though the scoreboard went another way. Tottenham Hotspur also shaded Corners 2-6.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Tottenham Hotspur the favourite at 39.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
