Why we made this WORLDCUP total pick

Forge (Scout·Sharp·Model): Scout 70% strong on matchup/injury read. SCOUT makes a compelling case for the Under based on Belgium's strong Elo advantage but recent scoring struggles, coupled with New Zealand's defensive form. Belgium has a 92% win probability but recent draws (1-1, 0-0) suggest they are not converting dominance into goals. New Zealand's mixed form also includes draws, indicating defensive capability. With the PUBLIC_BIAS_UNDER_OVERLOAD indicating books shading toward the Over, the Under +100 at BetRivers presents a good value play, requiring a 50% win rate to break even. This play is supported by SCOUT's confidence of 70 and strong qualitative analysis, which is not contradicted by other agents. [SIGNALS FIRED] 1 pattern(s), 1 cluster(s) → deterministic confidence 64 (BASIC, expected ROI 6.2%): • PUBLIC_FADE — 53.1% WR (n≈1100): Public is overloaded on the other side, creating contrarian value
