What moved our number

Eagle 2.0 starts from results and prices, then reads four more things. Here is every change it made on this game.

Nothing moved this one. Both teams are rested, form is level and there is no team news we can act on, so the number is what the results and the price say on their own.

Note: Each reading is capped on purpose. Together they can never move an expected goal number by more than 12 percent. See the full method.
