APWin Prediction

BTTS - Yes

The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: under 9.5 corners

After analysing the odds in the different markets, our best betting tip for this match is on the corners market and taking the total to go under 9.5 corners.

We anticipate Start vs Brann to be quite a controlled match with the main action concentrated in the middle of the pitch. That should limit the number of opportunities for corners, and so the odds of 2.26 for 9 corners or fewer looks quite attractive.

👉 Our prediction is: Brann to win

Start vs Brann is a tough match to call, with both teams looking so comparable in our evaluations. But despite the disadvantage of being the away side, we are picking Brann to win on the 1X2 market.

We find Brann's odds to win outright to be quite good value as the away side. Their away numbers suggest they have the ability to pull off a surprise at Sparebanken Sør Arena.
