Why this bet
Portland away markers average 3.94 total xG, with Over 2.5 in 5 of 6. Seattle home markers average 3.22 total xG. Combined patterns point to goals. Even if Portland's attack is weakened, Seattle should do enough. Over 2.5 at 1.40 is near fair value, but it's a solid play given the narrative. My estimate: 70% probability = fair odds 1.43, bookmaker 1.40 - slight underlay but acceptable for the theme.
