Why this pick

FAR score in 80% of home games and promoted Temara have conceded in every match so far.

FAR failed to score in only 2 of their last 10 home games and created 1.74 chances' worth per home game. Promoted Temara conceded in both league games. The market's 64% home-win price implies about 1.6+ FAR goals. Trimmed for 95 days of rust and possible absences.

The full write-upThe analyst's complete reasoning · 2 min read

AS FAR are rightly strong favourites at home to newly promoted Widad Temara, but after 95 days without a competitive game they're priced fairly; the only small lean is FAR to score.

Data (pack). AS FAR's last 10 home games: 5-5-0, scoring 1.4 and conceding 0.7 per game, with chances created and allowed of 1.74 and 0.75. They failed to score in only 20% of them and scored first in 8 of 8. Over 2.5 goals hit just 40%, and two of the last three home games were 0-0 or 2-2. Most of their home goals come after the break (10 of 14). They average 5.2 corners for and 2.5 against at home. Widad Temara are newly promoted with only 2 games in the data: a 3-1 win at Wydad Casablanca, where they created 1.7 chances' worth against 2.4 allowed, and a 0-1 home loss to Union Touarga. They have conceded in both. There are no corner or foul stats for Temara and no referee. The 3-2 'meeting' on 12 Sept was before FAR's season had started, so it was probably a friendly.

News (web). This is FAR's first league game of the season. They skipped Matchdays 1–2 because four players were away with national teams (Africasoccer, 6 Oct). This is their first competitive match in 95 days, which suggests rust. If the international window is still running, those players may be missing again. S. Errahouli is out with a broken foot (pack). I found no team news for Temara.

Market. The no-margin odds give 63.9/23.9/12.2 and over 2.5 at 46.4%. My numbers are 61/25/14, slightly toward the underdog because of rust and possible absences. Expected goals are 1.6 vs 0.95, about 2.55 in total, after nudging up for the model's known bias toward too few goals. That gives over 2.5 at about 49%, which is no edge on any priced line. Under picks are discouraged anyway.

Pick. FAR to score: the home failed-to-score rate is 20% and Temara conceded in 2 of 2. The market's implied home goal expectation of about 1.6–1.7 also points the same way, so roughly 76%, trimmed for rust. Corners and cards lack data on Temara and the referee, so no lean there.

Uncertainties. FAR's lineup and fitness, Temara's tiny sample, and no referee.
