The over market is fully loaded, paired with a “half-ball to one-ball” handicap, while the bookmaker is putting up resistance to backing the over:
From the moneyline (home win at 1.70) and the Asian handicap (-0.75), the bookmakers are showing very strong support for the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Under normal circumstances, when a team is strong enough to lay a “half-ball to one-ball” handicap, its attacking firepower is highly respected, and the over line would usually be adjusted to 2.5/3 goals or 2.5 goals with very low odds.
However, in this match, the over/under line is not only stuck firmly at 2.5 goals, but the over is also priced at full water 2.00 (high payout). This means the bookmakers are objectively not optimistic about both teams easily producing a goal fest, and the high odds are meant to increase the psychological resistance to backing the over.
The under has been set at very low odds of 1.80, indicating that money is leaning toward fewer goals. Given the nature of a friendly, both sides, especially with major tournaments approaching such as the build-up to the World Cup, often prioritize practicing defensive counterattacks and midfield pressing and ball-winning.
In this match, the under looks likely to be fine.
