Why we made this WORLDCUP spread pick

Forge (Scout·Sharp·Model): Sharp 65% strong on market/steam + Scout 58% confirmed. Siding with the SHARP's data-driven case over narrative and a weak MODEL read. The SHARP's 65 confidence is backed by a significant statistical advantage for Croatia in offensive (1.61 xG) and defensive (0.70 xGA) metrics. This provides a clear, quantifiable edge that isn't captured by the EXPERT's home-field angle. Critically, we are getting this play at a +115 price, which only requires a 46.5% win rate to break even — excellent value for the edge identified. The MODEL's dissent is noted but dismissed due to extremely low confidence (54) and a negligible projected edge.
