The Obos-Ligaen in Norway is phenomenal for FHG. So far this season, 90% of matches have a FHG. The German Bundesliga was 79% and the English Premiership was 75%. Surprisingly, the A-League was only 71%
Odds for a FHG in the Obos-Ligaen have been around 1.30 pre kick-off

A little update from myself:
I'm still working, albeit part-time. I think I work around 25 hours per week. I really enjoy the work / life balance. I feel happier.
My wife doesn't want me to leave work and I'm certainly not pushing to leave, but I would like it as an option. I asked her what it would take to prove to her that trading works. She said if I could turn £100 into £10,000 within one year then I could quit work.
I decided to try this challenge!
To do this I need to make roughly 10% of my starting bankroll each week. At the end of 'Week 2' (yesterday) my balance should be £121. It is currently £143.20. This is despite a lack of football.
My biggest worry was starting this at the end of the current football season, but football doesn't really end this season. We have the Euros starting in about 10 days. We have football in Norway, Sweden, Ireland and Brazil. We have Champions League, Europa League & Conference League matches starting in July. We have the Scottish League Cup starting in July (great for goals). The Winter leagues start back in August and we have the football at the Olympics in August too. Basically, football has a two week break.
So why do this challenge? For me it is simple. Just like businesses do 'stress tests' - trading is going to be my business. It would be remiss of me not to engage with it. I also want to prove to others that if I somehow lost everything, I could start with a meagre £100 and work it into something meaningful.
Makes you think

@Arran-Shackell 2nd vote for Nord...although I could still access Betfair with mobile data in France. It was blocked on the accommodation wifi...

@Arran-Shackell I used NordVPN when I was in Spain last year with no trouble at all
-
Could someone recommend a phone VPN please to get on betfair abroad?

@Alex-Rule was also looking at the markets for final tonight. Not an offer, but thought the odds on under 3.5 goals at 1.49 looked decent.
However, not sure if I’ll even do it myself as backing unders does spoil the enjoyment of the game a little
good shout, these finals are often tight affairs!

I have added a liability column to my Lay strats for tracking and adjusted the ROI to reflect the total liability as opposed to stakes (which I have kept for my backing strats)
Thanks again
Love this!

@Simon-Bates only 'just' got this, 10th goal scored in the 91st minute just before full time whistle

It's only half time shame I can't find this game on Betfair.
