Play the Over 2.5 goals line
The odds on an FC Liefering win make sense at 1.68, as does the Over 2.5 line at 1.64. However, we are taking the larger price on ‘Both Teams to Score - No’ at 2.17, as we feel FC Liefering are the more solid defensively of the teams and they could keep Klagenfurt from getting on the scoresheet.
FC Liefering’s intense, systematic gegenpressing and quick transitions will likely overwhelm Klagenfurt’s more raw setup, which is still trying to find its identity in the middle of the field.
