There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Aarau's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 12 games, won 7 matches, drawn 2 and lost 3.
Lots of goals? Who knows what will happen in this one, but we do know that 9 of the 10 most recent league matches with this team has seen at least three goals.
