    Guys, Does anyone look for value with the O 2.5 odds when there is a clear favorite, ie one team with win odds less than 2.0 I would expect the Over 2.5 odds to be less than 2.0 also, is there any logic behind this thought process?

    Not that I can see, but you haven't explained why you think that so who knows? Though of course, Barcelona.

    There is logic behind it, but nothing that the bookmakers aren't already aware of, they're pretty good at what they do!

    You also need to be league specific, a 1/2 team in the Premier League aren't necessarily going to score the same number of goals on average as a 1/2 team in Italy.

    Match Odds are calculated from supremacy between the teams and the amount of goals the game is in for. You can check sportingbet to see the spreads on the goal lines and can easily see what the game is in for goals wise.
