Montrose’s home form shows they average 1.6 goals scored and 1.8 conceded against similar opposition, while Spartans, playing away, average 2.5 scored and 2.25 conceded. Suggested picks include Under 7.5 at 98.6 %, Away under 3.5 goals at 98.1 %, Under 25.5 fouls at 97.7 %, Under 6.5 at 96.1 %, Under 5.5 cards at 95.6 %, Under 23.5 fouls at 94.1 %, Home +2 handicap at 94.0 % (miss), and Away under 2.5 goals at 91.8 %. The model’s selection points to a modest total and a low-scoring draw, reflecting Montrose’s solid home defence and Spartans’ slightly higher away scoring average.

The pre-match favourite, Montrose, failed to deliver as the Spartans secured a 0-2 away win, a shock that undercuts the model’s Home win call. The model had given the home side a 62 % chance, yet the result was an away triumph. The final score of 0-2 matched the actual result of an away win. The model’s selection was therefore wrong. The model’s other picks all turned out to be hits: Under 7.5 goals at 98.6 %, Away under 3.5 goals at 98.1 %, Under 25.5 fouls at 97.7 %, Under 6.5 at 96.1 %, Under 5.5 cards at 95.6 %, Under 23.5 fouls at 94.1 %, and Away under 2.5 goals at 91.8 %. Only the Home +2 handicap at 94.0 % missed, as the Spartans won outright.
