Both teams to score is the top value play, with a 62% estimated probability against 59.9% implied at odds of 1.67.

Avoid over 0.5 first-half goals and double chance Albacete or Draw, as the market has already priced in those outcomes. Cordoba's high card count makes over 4.5 total cards a secondary consideration.
