-0.5
OMEGA independent line projects a pick'em (0.0), but the market has shaded to Vancouver -0.5. The calibrated spread posterior gives LAFC +0.5 a 52.3% cover probability vs market 50.0%, a +2.3pp edge. Low model agreement caps confidence.
Ω Bottom Line
Over 3.5 total has +13.7pp Bayesian edge vs market, but OMEGA's 7.5 projection is likely inflated — still, two 10-goal scorers on the pitch suggest the market's 3.5 is too low

Line: -0.5
OMEGA independent line projects a pick'em (0.0), but the market has shaded to Vancouver -0.5. The calibrated spread posterior gives LAFC +0.5 a 52.3% cover probability vs market 50.0%, a +2.3pp edge. Low model agreement caps confidence.
MONEYLINE
LAFC
calibrated gives LAFC 49.3% win probability vs market implied 47.6% (from +240 = 29.4% vig-inclusive, de-vigged to ~47.6%). That's a +1.7pp edge. The +240 price offers significant upside if the model is correct.
TOTAL

Line: 3.5
calibrated total posterior shows OVER 63.7% probability vs market 50.0%, a massive +13.7pp edge. The OMEGA independent line projects 7.5 total, which is 4.0 points above the market — an extreme discrepancy that suggests the market total is too low.
Game Analysis
This is a low-confidence slate. The Bayesian fusion shows very low model agreement (11.2%), meaning the quantitative models disagree with each other and with the market. The OMEGA independent line projects a pick'em (0.0) while the market has Vancouver -0.5, suggesting a slight market overvaluation of home advantage. The total is the most interesting angle: OMEGA projects 7.5 goals vs the market's 3.5, a 4.0-point gap that is likely a model artifact (Poisson overfitting for MLS) but still points to the market total being too low. Brian White and Denis Bouanga are both in form with 10 goals each, and neither team has reported injuries. With 50% data quality, all picks are capped at LEAN confidence. The over 3.5 total has the highest Bayesian edge (+13.7pp) but comes with significant model uncertainty.
