@richard-latimer I didn't mention the nil nils in my post but they've also been crap for me. Sure that will change...

My one FHG papertrade for the day is in. A good start haha!

And as per my post this morning it wouldn't qualify for SHG play unless further goals scored prior to 60th minute.

After reading the discussion on Dari's thread I feel somewhat more confident this will all come good in the end and that what I have is a very decent platform from which to keep going. 0-0's have been incredibly poor at present but I'll keep tracking everything. There are leagues where certain things are working and certain things aren't.

All I can do is keep following the data wherever it leads me as long as it is logical to do so.

Not feeling the love in Eredivisie right now for tight games at 1/0/0-0. Sparta with an unexpected blank!

Gremio had loads of goals but they all came just that little bit too early or that little bit too late.

For Fri:

There are more on my list but I'm getting this one out there early. Looking for results to start levelling out at some point. Expect a FHG or 2nd FHG if the early one is missed.

0-0 @ HT will require at least one early goal before I deem it a trade. Other scorelines so far ok....

The red is there to signify in this case that Bengal have moved up a league, hence Goa (Odisha) more likely to score. Or at least think they can and leave the back door open. I really don't care which it is.

Small change to what I said above, without an early goal in 2nd half I wouldn't touch this. Ave home goals are high and to the point where I have been seeing a drop off for ages. Goals breed goals but where there are no goals and the level of expectation for goals goes through the roof, there are often no goals period haha!

There will be 4 or 5 goals after 60mins now of course haha!

Only 2 games today and papertrading only 2nd halfs in each.

Grrr.....every day a pretend red.

First 2 games would have been a right pigs ear. Goalless in both and the equivalent of 3 losing trades. This is why I'm papertrading.

Thankfully the rest went to plan. 2 FHG in Belgium followed by a 67th minute goal to level up in Everton. Nothing else qualified. India looks a tricky league and CZE maybe not so good for FHG.

Here's my papertrading plan for today:

FHG+ implies if I miss an early goal there's a good chance of another.

LCS70/75 implies if I miss the first or 2nd goal there may still be a chance to get in 70/75. If only one early goal goes in then it needs to put the favourite in a position of losing by one or drawing.

Although virtually no data to back it up it's looking like if 3 early goals go in then chance of a late goal is still high. Maybe an entry point of 80 mins in this case. Will need to see how it plays out as I keep tracking daily.

1-0 is not a HT scoreline which has worked out in Eredivisie so far as the it reaches 67th minute with no further goals.

And so, a quick glance back:

AUE failed to get a FHG although data is starting to point to 0.7 being not a good enough FH home average....at least when the team isn't a much stronger favourite than around evens. They did get a late goal after falling behind early which continues to prove that goals breed more goals.

Eupen were 0-2 down @ HT, this along with 0-1 in Belgium seem to be like Kryptonite. I should have detailed it here but that was a no trade already put in place.

Exeter went behind early but there was no 2nd goal FH so that's a loser.

Barrow postponed.

PSV won late against Emmen so that's a green trade.

Rapid postponed.

Dusselfdorf a BIG FAT FAILURE!!

Cliftonville goals came at the wrong time. No trade.

Raith, despite seeing red scored late. It's difficult to rule out reds at present when out of more than 20 or so there's only been one loss. Time will tell.

Raith came up from league one so regardless they don't qualify and had I made that trade I would be annoyed at myself.

Mixed bag again. On the JOFFS front taking only draws from HT and the occasional early H2 goal which goes from 0-1 - 1-1 it was 2/3.

Saarbrucken had an unexpected blank but both Twente & Lazio picked up the slack.

In terms of FHG, nothing from Saarbrucken or Celta Vigo but Honved did manage to convert.

Finally Hatayspor managed to make it 1-1 from 1-0 at the death.

Putting things down here slightly different today in an abbreviated format as this is for my benefit and I simply don't have the time to regurgitate in great detail on a daily basis. I'm following same format as yesterday and the day before so if people have been following it should be easy enough to decipher.

That said, if anyone has any questions and I'm around I will do my best to answer:

Back with todays papertrading plan in a bit.
