In-play angle. Japan press high in the first 20 minutes, then drop. If it is 0-0 at the half hour, the live Under 2.5 line tends to shorten fast — that is the window. If Brazil concede first (see the 2025 friendly), the Ancelotti reaction is usually a Paqueta-for-Casemiro switch, which juices BTTS Yes on the live ticker. Betoranje's in-play board refreshes quickly enough to catch both moves.
