Match analysis

Five, two and two are three of Leyton Orient's own scoring totals in their last five games, the reason Superior backs Over 1.5 for their home League Cup tie with Bradford on 8 September at 1.32, rated 66 percent by the model. Bradford have tightened up lately, though, with their finishing shut out entirely in their most recent game.

Leyton Orient's own scoring rate already clears this line

Leyton Orient have scored five, two and two in three of their last five games, and even their two defeats came by 1-3 and 1-2 scorelines rather than blanks. Combined with Bradford's more modest 0.8 goals a game, the two sides project to 3.0 goals between them, well clear of this total.

The last two meetings between these sides both cleared this line

Bradford's most recent two results were a 1-0 and a 2-0 win, both kept tight at the back, a contrast to the 1-2 and 0-2 defeats earlier in the run. The last two meetings between these sides both finished with three total goals, so history here already sits on the right side of this line.

Bradford's most recent game is the total's real risk

Over 1.5 loses at zero or one total goal, and Bradford's most recent match finished exactly there, a 1-0 win with just one goal in the whole game. If that defensive shape holds again and Leyton Orient's own finishing has an off night, this total finishes short.
