    Coaches Corner
    • 47.3% warehouse away-win model probability versus 40.0% implied by FanDuel +150.
    • Confirmed Aquilani 4-3-3 attacks Monza's Jurić 3-4-2-1 wing-back spaces.
    • Jurić's man-oriented structure can disrupt Sassuolo's buildup and force transition errors.
    Low Tide Line
    • Full feature coverage is present; Dixon-Coles inputs use 10-match form and 9-match minimum xG history.
    • Pinnacle fair value is close to the Kalshi price, so the 10-point projection gap may be model error rather than market error.
    Number Earned
    • Model probability 47.3%; fair line +112 versus DraftKings +145.
    • Opponent-adjusted xG favors Sassuolo 1.65, 1.34; raw away/home xG is 1.63, 1.40.
    • The model uses a 10-match form window and has no prior meetings on file.
