These are the saved selections and explanations from the public results record. The analysis below may have been refreshed later.

Spread: Houston Dynamo FC 0.5 (+110) PENDING · Recorded 2026-11-01T23:08:09.726735 UTC

Houston's 14-9-9 record vs Portland's 11-7-14 and a +0.5 buffer (draw wins the bet) at plus money creates mispricing vs the 47.6% implied rate

Total: under 2.5 (+130) PENDING · Recorded 2026-11-01T22:05:41.137015 UTC

Under at +130 needs only 43.5%; late-season playoff-stage MLS sides on the road trend toward 2-goal matches, giving a ~52% under probability

Moneyline: Houston Dynamo FC (+330) PENDING · Recorded 2026-11-01T23:08:09.662161 UTC

At +330 only a 23.3% implied is needed; Houston's superior 14-9-9 record against a Portland side losing more than half its games supports a ~34% true win rate

Player Prop: over (-110) PENDING · Recorded 2026-11-01T22:05:41.218687 UTC

Model projection based on roster role as Houston's primary attacking-phase presence; thin sample — LEAN tier only

FULL ANALYSIS
Books price Portland at -145 (~59.2%) on pure home-field in MLS, but Houston brings the better record (14-9-9 vs 11-7-14) to a spot where a draw — roughly a quarter of MLS matches — still wins the +0.5. Late-season road sides tighten up, pushing the total down from 2.5 at a +130 under that only needs 43.5%. No sharp book or injury data, so all three picks cap at LEAN and half-units on a non-validated sport.
SHARP MONEY
No Pinnacle/retail divergence data supplied; record differential alone leans Houston but this is not sharp confirmation
Recommended Sizing
0.5u
Reduced sizing. Edge exists but sample or signal strength is moderate.
