Why we picked this for Belgium vs Rep of Ireland

Over 2.5 goals is our call for Belgium against Rep of Ireland (European Championship), rated at 91% confidence. Matches involving Belgium produced 3.2 goals per game over their last 5, and 3 of those went over 2.5. For Rep of Ireland it is 2.0 goals per game, with 1 of 5 over 2.5. Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 4 of the 10 recent games went over 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Over 2.5.
