Averaging the two sides' own rates: over 2.5 goals in 53% of their games, both teams scoring in 56%, and a two-goal lead for one side or the other in 46%. On the record there is no strong lean either way on goals.
Mansfield Town: 50 league matches in the bank, 7 from this season and the rest from last season. Leyton Orient: 50 league matches in the bank, 7 from this season and the rest from last season.
The question this step asks
Step four is THE BOOKIES' FAVOURITE MARKETS -- over and under, both teams to score, and the two-goal lead that pays the 2UP offer out early -- read from what these two sides have actually produced, with the denominator on every figure. Still no price: these are the match's tendencies, not its odds.
How the counting works, once for the whole step: every figure is counted over ONE side's own matches -- Mansfield Town's numbers over its games, Leyton Orient's over its own. The two clubs are never pooled into one denominator; where a single figure for this fixture is wanted, it is the AVERAGE of the two sides' rates, and says so.
For the 2UP offer the fact that matters is a two-goal lead for one team or the other at ANY point, not the final margin. In Mansfield Town's own 25 home matches read, one appeared in 13 (52%). In Leyton Orient's own 25 away matches read, 10 (40%). Averaging the two sides' rates -- never pooling their matches -- that is 46% of games.
