Match analysis
Oxford United have been part of two goals or more in every one of their last five away performances, and that consistency is behind Superior's Over 1.5 goals pick at 1.29 for their League One meeting with Leicester on 5 September, priced at a 65 percent probability.
Oxford United's last five have all produced two goals or more
Oxford's away form reads 1-3, 2-1, 2-2, 0-2 and 2-0, every one of them clearing this line, and their attack carries a 7.2 rating with a 40 percent conversion rate in its latest sample. Leicester's own scoring has been steadier at 1.0 goal a game, and the two previous meetings between these sides also both finished with two goals or more.
Leicester's 0-0 draw shows this line is not automatic
The pick loses only on a 0-0 or a 1-0 scoreline, and Leicester have already had one goalless afternoon in their last five. If Oxford's away attack has an off day against a Leicester defence capable of shutting games down, this could settle at nothing rather than clear 1.5.
