Line: 6.0

Game Analysis
The market has this priced as a coin flip (Home -104), but the sharp money is screaming away side. Pinnacle fair value on the spread is 71.8% away, with confirmed reverse line movement and $325K+ in whale volume backing Vegas. The real edge, however, is the total. OMEGA projects 15.5 goals — nearly double the market's 7.5. While that number seems absurd, the Bayesian posterior shows 65.1% over probability at 7.5, a +15.1pp edge. Sharp money on the total also favors over with RLM. The spread at +1.0 is a gift — OMEGA says pick'em, and sharp money agrees. Take the over as the primary play, sprinkle the away spread, and consider away ML as a secondary lean.
