Analysis
International Friendly Thursday OVER 2.5 in Hungary vs Estonia @ 2:30 ET - This is very similar to yesterday's play on the over 2.5 in Ireland and that one had 4 goals by half-time and finished with a total of 5 goals scored. Hungary is favored to win this match by 1.5 goals on the goal line. That means decent odds they could even win this match by a multi-goal margin but I really like the fact they are about a -300 favorite on the money line and yet decent odds on Estonia scoring at least 1 goal in this one. Yes it sets up to be a bit of a mismatch but if that is the case also don't be surprised if Hungary wins 3-0 as they have averaged scoring 3.3 goals in last 3 meetings with Estonia. However, I really do not expect a clean sheet here. Don't be surprised if this match instead finishes 2-1 or 3-1 as I do expect Estonia to make the net ripple at least once. Across all competitions, Estonia has scored at least 1 goal in 6 straight matches and averaged 1.8 goals scored in those half-dozen matches. As for Hungary, they have scored at least 1 goal in 11 of last 13 matches and have averaged 1.6 goals scored in last 12 matches. Considering they will be without their top goalie choice here, there are even higher odds that Estonia scores at least once in this one and that puts a little more pressure on Hungary to score so I am expecting a 2-1 final at a minimum but more likely 3-1. Either way, I am looking for 3 here at least! OVER 2.5 in Hungary
