- Dixon-Coles under-2.5 probability is 0.61, confirming the lower-goal direction; PPDA 14.17/13.88 and field tilt .478/.510 are only secondary context.
- Pinnacle posts 3.25 (-108 Over/-104 Under), but that is a different rung; the direct 3.5 contract is Kalshi.
- Seattle and Montréal have substantial recent roster turnover; the feature may lag current attacking or defensive quality.
