Does anyone on here use Footy Amigo? im sure i read some time ago that a member was using it. it looks brilliant from what they say they can do they msg you with your set critea like how many shots corners etc in a game pre match and inplay stats. It would save me so much time on weekends i have sometimes over 10 games open at once can be really hard to keep track!
-
@Mark-Maguire yea your not wrong!! you can see why they are struggling they need some quality up front to convert the chances they create.
-
@Toni-0 to be fair if Ajax had more composure in front of goal it could have been 8-2
-
@Mark-Maguire well played i was gonna back over 0.5 goals after about 55 minutes in Ajax game was sure it wouldnt stay 0-0 the way the game was going but the odds were a bit skinny
-
Just a couple today with caveats:
LTD
Mumbai vs Minerva
green albeit smaller than if I'd stayed inAJAX vs Volendam
LTD
01.5 (Greened after first goal) -
All Ajax so far they look up for it tonight
-
@Mark-Maguire i need to use the ELO more but dont exactly understand it. One thing to look into for November. Thanks for the Stats mate
-
@Toni-0 just looking at my stats analysis for the game and the ELO odds suggest probability of a Volendam win are 5% (Ajax 85%, Draw 10%) so from that Volendam should be at 20, Ajax at 1.18.
Predicted score from my model is 3-2 however which puts the game closer.
-
@Mark-Maguire yes true im going to watch the game tonight and see what type of game is playing out. I dont trade away games at the moment only Home teams so it will go against my Strategy but that price just seemed big to me. Thanks for your reply the game is on betfair live if you wanted to watch it.
-
@Toni-0 The question for me would be (while understanding the price is big) what makes it value ?. its only value if you feel its likely to happen .. so to your point Volendam awful away from home. So you are relying on Ajax continuing to be rubbish .. and they may well do that.. for me this is a could be anything type of game .. the one thing I do think that will happen is that there will be a couple of goals.(guarantee a nil nil now I've said that)
My concern for you on Volendam would be Ajax simply have to do something to arrest the slide .. and they won't get a better chance than tonight. If they hate the choice of manager you'll be quids in, but it must be getting to the point that struggling teams often reach where all the selfishness, discontent etc gets put aside and they all realise we have to just pull together - same for the fans..
-
Would you guys say Volendam away to Ajax Draw no bet at 10.5 is Value? Volendam are Terrible away from home lost the last 7 but 10.5 draw no bet looks huge as Ajax are really struggling and have just appointed a new manager. What are your thoughts?
-
@Mark-Maguire I went for the O2.5 and came out at 70' when it was 1-0. Late goals are killing me lately. They happen so often in these tinpot leagues that I'm sure there's a fix in somewhere.
-
@Mark-Maguire ah well a green is a green
two in two from the home team after I greened up -
Taking small green in Indian game with FAV losing and only 15 mins to go/attacks increasing from home team
-
@Trevor-H the Indian game wouldn't qualify for my over 2.5 because I need a minimum of ten games in the season.
In terms of staking no its not the same, I will drip more in if inplay stats are good but essentially its a set and forget with the Caveat that I won't risk a late goal if its 0-0 with a few mins to go
-
@Mark-Maguire The Indian game looks more like an O2.5, going on the season so far! Volendam have 0 pts away as yet, which won't help their match odds. (Tempting to lay Ajax at 1.27.) Do you use the same staking plan for LTD as for the overs?
-
@Mark-Maguire said in *****New Football Thread*****:
Final point always a bit cautious on quiet days because the temptation to trade just because there are a couple of games on the filter can outweigh the actual reality of how good or bad the opportunities are.
Absolutely spot on Mark, I bet many of us have fallen into that trap - I know I have!
-
Just a couple today with caveats:
LTD
Mumbai vs Minerva the caveat is its literally the first time an Indian game has come up on this filter .. after more than 1500 games so no data to check it but will trade it cautiously based on the ELO odds and home favourite etc
AJAX vs Volendam - this is an interesting one because Ajax being favourites is purely based on reputation and history - certainly not on form.
It also comes up on O1.5 filter - Ajax have appointed someone til the end of the season and are desperate to stop their fans rioting - so I will trade strongly on Overs cautiously on LTD - normally a new manager would be one that would make me cautious on goals but it Aiax and they are at home against Volendam .. I can't imagine the locals celebrating a nil nil which ordinarily for a club sitting bottom would be described as steadying the ship..
Bit of a ramble for just a couple of trades but helps me check my rationale by "saying it out loud".

@Mark-Maguire he's back with a bang!!!
