    • Model rates are 1.54 Fulham goals and 1.03 Hull goals; total lambda 2.58.
    • The model makes under 2.5 a 52.4% outcome, versus a 46¢ Kalshi NO price.
    • Pinnacle's fresh sharp anchor is Under 2.8 at -112, supporting a relatively low-scoring baseline.
    • Hugo Larsson is listed as a Fulham doubt, and late lineup news could materially alter the rate pair.

    XI DeltaUp 138% last 7 days
    Why it likes it
    • Model xG rates total 3.03: Fulham 1.82 plus Hull 1.21; Poisson over 2.5 is about 58.3%.
    • Fresh XI data shows Fulham retaining its goalkeeper and core attacking midfield; Hull retains Tzolakis, McBurnie and most of its recent spine.
    • This is projection-only: lineup data was fresh at 6:06:32 AM PDT and the ProphetX board at 6:06:47, so no timing-lag claim is needed.
    • The 3.03-goal projection is model-based and early-season form can be noisy.

    First StrikeUp 2% over 212 picks
    Why it likes it
    • Hull lambda 1.03 versus Fulham 1.54 gives Hull 37.1% first-goal probability before timing adjustment.
    • Empirical 197221xx event sample had 96 goals after halftime versus 65 before halftime; I shift 0.6 points toward stronger Fulham, leaving Hull at 36.5%.
    • Pinnacle's 2.75-goal total at -111/+101 is an independent sharp total anchor; model coverage is 10 xG matches per side.
    • Starting XIs are not posted; Fulham has 2 and Hull 8 sidelined players in the preview count.

    Why it likes it
    • Recent EPL events: 13 of 47 goals before or at minute 45; measured 1H share is 27.7%.
    • Poisson fits to clean ladders: 1H mean 1.27, 2H mean 1.58, full-match mean 2.85; additivity holds.
    • The split sample is only 14 EPL fixtures and 47 goals; 27.7% may be unstable.

    Why it likes it
    • Dixon-Coles estimates Fulham by 2+ at 25.2%, making my NO probability 74.8% versus the 67c executable price.
    • no independent sharp full-match -1.5 price was posted; the sportsbook board only offers off-line -0.5. Rest is Fulham 7 days, Hull 6.
    • Fulham winning by at least two goals loses the ticket; one lopsided match dominates this binary contract.
