The Number Cruncher
The Number Cruncher is the team's statistician: he checks every price against his own probability and only tips when the numbers add up. He considers gut feeling a measurement error.
Freiburg score 2.4 goals per home game on average. Union concede 4.0 per away game. That really says it all – I'll say it anyway.
