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 -- Plymouth Argyle's numbers over its games, Huddersfield Town'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 Plymouth Argyle's own 25 home matches read, one appeared in 10 (40%). In Huddersfield Town's own 26 away matches read, 12 (46%). Averaging the two sides' rates -- never pooling their matches -- that is 43% of games.
