Point spread is -4,5 and you lay only -105. If yo+u pick ML, you pay approximately -200. When converted to decimal odds,
-200 is 1.50, You need %66.66+ in order to make profit.
-105 is 1,952, You need just %51.23+ in order to make profit.
So how often this favourite will win by 1-2-3-4 points? Not worth of laying -200 for sure..
