In the FA Cup fixture between Montrose and Hamilton Academical, the 1X2 probabilities show Montrose at 55%, while Hamilton Academical sits at 23%. The most likely scoreline predicted by our model is 2-1, with a 9% chance of occurring. With expected goals of 2.21 for Montrose and 1.40 for Hamilton Academical, there is a strong case for Over 2.5 goals at 70% and both teams to score at 68%.
