UEFA Champions League picks for Young Boys vs. Manchester United
Before you tune in to Wednesday’s match, you need to see the Manchester United vs. Young Boys from SportsLine’s proprietary European soccer model. Created by two Norwegians — professional poker player and sports bettor Jonas Gjelstad, and economics and engineering expert Marius Norheim — the model analyzes worldwide betting data and exploits market inefficiencies, helping its followers cash in. Since coming to SportsLine last year, the algorithm is up over $8,500.
For Manchester United vs. Young Boys, the model is backing under 3.5 total goals scored. Since Man Utd sacked manager Ole Gunnar Solskjær in late November, the team’s four games have averaged 2.5 total goals scored. Three of the four not only had fewer than 3.5 goals, but had just two total goals scored.
Also, when Manchester United and Young Boys squared off in September, the game appeared headed to a 1-1 final before Jordan Pefok scored in the 95th minute. Young Boys pulled off the 2-1 upset, but even with that late goal, the total fell under 3.5.
Despite Cristiano Ronaldo being back in the fold, Man Utd is by no means an offensive juggernaut. It has 25 goals in the EPL, which is 19 behind top scorer Liverpool. Meanwhile, Young Boys has allowed the second fewest goals in its domestic league, so Manchester United isn’t projected to light up the scoreboard. The model has this game finishing with a 2-1 final, thus it says to back under 3.5 total goals.
