Under 2.5 Goals: 85.90
The odds for fewer than 2.5 goals standing at 85.90 indicate a strong likelihood of a low-scoring game. Both teams have demonstrated disciplined defensive structures in recent matches, which could lead to a tightly contested affair with limited scoring opportunities. This prediction aligns with the tactical nature of youth football, where teams often prioritize defensive solidity over risky offensive plays.
Both Teams Not to Score: 77.80
With odds of 77.80, the possibility of neither team finding the back of the net is significant. This reflects the defensive prowess of both squads, particularly Genoa U20, which has been effective in keeping clean sheets in recent fixtures. The match could see both teams focusing on maintaining defensive discipline, making it challenging for either side to break through and score.
Over 1.5 Goals: 64.30
The odds for more than 1.5 goals are set at 64.30, suggesting that while a low-scoring game is likely, there remains a reasonable chance for at least one team to score two or more goals. Lazio U20’s attacking talent may provide the breakthrough needed to surpass this threshold, especially if they can exploit any weaknesses in Genoa U20’s defense.
