Totals & spreadsOver/under picks call the match's total goals or points, not the winner. Odds are 1.70–2.20 and the reason is always named: pace, goaltending, absences or conditions. In ice hockey overtime and the shootout count; in football only regulation time. Spread picks call the winning margin: Lakers −4.5 wins if the Lakers win by five or more. | ||||||

Monday's offering focuses on football, with matches scheduled in Italy's Serie A, Sweden's Allsvenskan and Turkey's Süper Lig. The evening continues in South America with a Brazilian top-flight clash, so the betting day offers action across several different markets.
Likely
Likely picks are favourites whose chance of winning we consider to be at least as high as the market does. They land more often than value bets, but short odds mean that one loss wipes out several wins. The edge in this band is usually around zero or negative, because the odds include the bookmaker's margin – the long-term return is at market level, not above it.
Atalanta BC – Venezia: Atalanta BC to win @ 1.60
Statistics. Atalanta's record in their last five Serie A matches is 2–0–3 and Venezia's is 0–0–5. In a 10-match sample across all competitions, Atalanta have scored 1.1 and conceded 0.9 goals per match, while Venezia have scored 1.6 and conceded 2.3; xG and xPTS figures are not available. Situation. Atalanta are without centre-backs Isak Hien and Odilon Kossounou, while Giacomo Raspadori and Kamaldeen Sulemana are doubtful. Venezia's absence list is longer and includes captain Gianluca Busio as well as several defensive players. Both have had more than three weeks' rest, but Atalanta have a European match in three days. Estimate. Atalanta BC: 61.6% · Draw: 21.3% · Venezia: 17.1% Why we are betting it. Atalanta are justified home favourites against a Venezia side without a point, but the hosts' three-match losing streak and shortage of centre-backs prevent a figure higher than the market estimate. The estimate matches the market's fair distribution.
Odds 1.60 · market 61.6% · our estimate 62% · edge -1.4%
IF Elfsborg – Halmstads BK: IF Elfsborg to win @ 1.35
Statistics. After 22 matches, Elfsborg are fourth on 37 points with goals of 31–22; their home record is 6–3–2. Halmstad are bottom on 14 points with an away record of 0–3–8. Over the last 10 matches, the average goals figures are 1.7–0.6 for Elfsborg and 1.0–1.4 for Halmstad. Situation. P. Frick, L. Hagg and M. Rohdén are absent for Elfsborg, while no absences have been reported for Halmstad (API-Football). The teams have had 10 and 9 days' rest, so there is no fixture congestion; Elfsborg are fighting for the top places and Halmstad for their league status. Estimate. IF Elfsborg 70.3% · Draw 19.6% · Halmstads BK 10.1% Why we are betting it. Elfsborg's strong home record and Halmstad's winless away record make a Home win likely, but the absences and the market's already strong pricing of the favourites give no basis to raise the estimate above the market's fair 70.3%.
Odds 1.35 · market 70.3% · our estimate 70% · edge -5.1%
Value bets
For value bets, our estimate exceeds the market's, meaning we believe the odds are too high. They land less often than favourites, and results fluctuate considerably over short periods – the benefit only becomes apparent across dozens of bets if our estimates are correct.
Malmo FF – Kalmar FF: Malmo FF to win @ 1.77
Statistics. After 22 rounds, Malmö are eighth on 33 points with goals of 37–33, and Kalmar are 14th on 19 points with goals of 21–36. Kalmar's record from 11 league away matches is 0–2–9 with goals of 7–19; in the recent-match sample, Malmö's goals ratio is 1.7–1.0 and Kalmar's is 1.0–1.7 per match. Situation. Six absences have been listed for Malmö, including the experienced Pontus Jansson and Anders Christiansen; K. Paananen is out for Kalmar and J. Kindberg is doubtful. Malmö have had eight full rest days and Kalmar five. The match starts on Monday 12.10.2026 at 20.00 (Helsinki time). Estimate. Malmo FF: 63% · Draw: 22% · Kalmar FF: 15% Why we are betting it. Home advantage, Kalmar's winless 0–2–9 away record and Malmö's longer recovery time raise the estimate for a Home win. Malmö's longer absence list nevertheless keeps the estimate moderate.

Torino – Udinese: Torino to win @ 2.42
Statistics. In five Serie A matches this season, Torino are 2–1–2 with a goal difference of 5–7 and Udinese are 0–1–4 with a goal difference of 7–12. In a sample of the last 10 matches, Torino's average goals scored–conceded is 0.8–1.1 and Udinese's is 1.4–1.3; Over 2.5 goals landed in 3/10 and 4/10. xG and xPTS: not available. Situation. Torino have had 22 days' rest and Udinese 15. Israel and Pellegri are out for Torino, while Adams and Casadei are doubtful; Gueye, Piotrowski and Zaniolo are absent for Udinese, while Arizala and Palma are doubtful (API-Football). Estimate. Torino: 45% · Draw: 29% · Udinese: 26% Why we are betting it. Home advantage, Udinese's more severe squad shortage and Torino's seven-day longer break between matches tilt the estimate towards Torino. Torino's low scoring nevertheless keeps the probability of a Draw high.

Over/Under and Handicap
For Over/Under bets, you bet on the match's total goals or points, not the winner. The odds are 1.70–2.20 and the rationale is always specified: match tempo, goalkeepers, absences or conditions. In ice hockey, overtime and the shootout are included, while in football only regulation time counts. For Handicap bets, you bet on the winning margin: Lakers −4.5 wins if the Lakers win by at least five.
Eyüpspor – Goztepe: Over 2.5 goals @ 1.80
Statistics. Across Eyüpspor's 10 matches, the average number of goals has been 3.1 and Over 2.5 has landed in 5/10. In Göztepe's matches, the average has been 3.7 goals and the line has been exceeded in 8/10; five of this season's six league matches have finished with at least three goals. Situation. Both have had a 22-day break between matches. Göztepe are without centre-backs Allan Godoi, Furkan Bayir and Noah Sonko Sundberg in defence, but also Bayrakdar and Sabra in attack; Miroshi is doubtful. Sabiri is absent for Eyüpspor. Estimate. Over: 58% · Under: 42% Why we are betting it. Göztepe's high-scoring environment and the absence of three centre-backs push the estimate above the market, although attacking absences keep the increase moderate. Deviation from the market: The estimate leans Over compared with the market because Göztepe's matches have been high-scoring and three centre-backs are absent from their defensive line, although attacking absences limit the deviation.

Chapecoense – Atletico Paranaense: Over 2.5 goals @ 1.93
Statistics. Chapecoense's goal figures over their last 10 matches average 1.1 scored and 1.9 conceded, and Over 2.5 goals landed 6/10 times. Athletico's corresponding figures are 1.9 and 1.9, with 7/10 Overs. Situation. Chapecoense are without six players and Athletico two, but the precise key roles of all absences could not be confirmed. A storm warning is in force in Chapecó due to the risk of heavy rain, hail and strong gusts, which dampens the estimate for attacking play; the match starts at 01.30 (Helsinki time) on Tuesday 13.10.2026. Estimate. Over: 54% · Under: 46% Why we are betting it. Both teams' recent total-goals levels and a combined 13 Overs in 20 matches lift the Over estimate slightly above the market. The risk posed by weather conditions keeps the difference moderate. Deviation from the market: High goal totals in the last 10 matches raise the Over estimate above the market, but Chapecó's storm warning reduces the deviation.
