St. Andrews will be looking to rebound from a 2-2 draw after a string of defeats, while Pietà Hotspurs arrive unbeaten in five games with a 2-2 stalemate at home. The numbers hint at a high-scoring affair: the model expects 3.4 goals on average, with the most likely total being three, and the single most probable scoreline is 1-1 at 10.1%. The model favours an away win, giving the Hotspurs a 52% chance, St. Andrews 25% and a draw 23%. Offensively, St. Andrews averages one goal at home against similar opposition but concedes 2.1, whereas Pietà Hotspurs scores 1.67 and concedes 2.33 on the road. The suggested picks are: Under 7.5 (97.6%), Home under 3.5 goals (94.9%), Under 6.5 (94.0%), Away +2 handicap (89.0%), Away over 0.5 goals (87.2%), Under 5.5 (86.7%), Over 1.5 (86.6%) and Away under 3.5 goals (84.7%).

⚖️ 7. Handicap
Handicap
The handicap is applied to St. Andrews, so a minus line means St. Andrews give that many goals of a start and Pietà Hotspurs receive them. At -1, St. Andrews must win by two or more to land; a one-goal St. Andrews win settles as Draw. There is no returned stake - the middle case is its own selection. Taken from the same scoreline distribution as correct score.
