Köln is the favorite at +152, but the market probability sits at just 38% for the visitors, 36% for Union Berlin and 26% for the draw. That's a coin flip with a third option. Union Berlin's home record is 1-3-3 and its moneyline record is 1-3, yet the price on the home side has drifted from +148 to +163. Sharp money is on Köln. The market is telling you something, but it isn't telling you everything.
Here's the case for Köln. The visitors are 2-2-3, riding a one-game win streak, and scoring 1.1 goals per game while allowing 1.6. That's not a juggernaut, but it's better than Union's 0.9 goals per game and 2.6 allowed. Köln's last 10 reads D-L-W-L-D-L-W-L-L-T, a team that wins in bursts. The moneyline record is 0-3, which means the market has been slow to price them. The line move says bettors are catching up.
Here's the case for Union. The home side is 1-3-3 but has drawn its last game, and its last 10 includes a T-T-W finish. Union is scoring just 0.9 goals per game, but Köln is allowing 1.6. At +171, Union is the longest price on the board. The draw at +270 is the third option, and 26% probability is not nothing. If you think Union's home crowd matters, the price is the best it's been all week.
The number moved from +148 to +163 on Union, which is sharp money on Köln. The best price on Union is +171 at Bovada, the draw is +270 at BetOnline.ag, and Köln is +160 at BetOnline.ag. In Draw No Bet, Union is -106 at Bovada and Köln is -111 at BetOnline.ag.
