Line is efficient

Market implies 60% for Groningen; h2h (7W in 10, 21-8 goals) and standings gap support ~62-63%, yielding ~2-3pp edge — insufficient for a call at this confidence band.

We don’t pick when we shouldn’t. Cortex looks at every marquee fixture but only publishes a call when there is a quantifiable edge over the market. This is a feature, not a bug — rubber- stamping consensus picks would dilute the calibration that justifies the subscription.
