Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid Prediction

Under 2.5 goals is an analyst pick for Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid (Champions League): it goes against the recent numbers below, so it carries no confidence figure. Matches involving Liverpool produced 3.6 goals per game over their last 5, and 3 of those went over 2.5. For Atletico Madrid it is 3.8 goals per game, with 4 of 5 over 2.5. The recent numbers point the other way: only 3 of the 10 recent games of these two teams went under 2.5. Recent results can mislead when the teams have been playing very different opposition (another league, much stronger or much weaker sides), and here the analyst expects this match to play differently.

The head-to-head doesn't back it either: only 2 of their last 5 meetings finished under 2.5 goals. Treat it as a judgement call rather than a pick backed by the numbers. The match ended 2-1, so Under 2.5 didn't come in.
