@Martin said in *****New Football Thread*****: @Adam is on the case! It's back as of around 18:15. This issue has been a persistant thorn in my side this last couple of weeks (and everyone else's, I realise!) due to it not being picked up on our monitoring tools. Good news is, I have sorted it

Home Wins: Fulham v Rotherham (FA CUP) - Fulham win at 1.22. Not great odds, but Rotherham are fighting relegation and they concede a lot Sporting v Estoril. Tight at the top. Expect Sporting to win here. Odds are 1.26

@Mark-Maguire Thanks for your reply. Your explanation makes perfect sense and completely understand now. Much appreciated! Aaron

@Aaron-Rouse welcome ! Simple answer is that there is no difference other than your attitude towards risk and reward .. If you back under 3.5 goals (for an example the Palace vs Everton game tonight) the odds are 1.33 so for a Β£10 stake the return would be Β£3.30 on a straight bet. If you lay over 3.5 the odds are 4.1 so a ten pounds stake would make the liability Β£31.00 (to win Β£10) or to make the same return Β£3.30 the risk would Β£10.23 - Its really down to personal preference which way you go. Hope this makes sense.

Hi All, 
 I am new to trading, and was wondering...what is the difference between laying over 3.5 goals and backing under 3.5 goals.
 Thanks

@Tony-Hastie I am looking for match action in previous games which suggests an early goal in the game .. it started with filters looking for what I think leads to goals rather than goals themselves and then when I studied the data I saw that first goal times were roughly as follows: first 15 mins 35%. next fifteen mins 23% , next fifteen mins 17% (so 75% FHG) then 9% up to 60 mins .. then it drops to 11% for the last half hour and 5% no goal which led to me work out an early entry point and staking - I sometimes trade FHG on these too if my stats say the % FHG is above 94% on the probabilities I calculate .

@Mark-Maguire The Partick game has come up in my FHG filter which got me thinking....Are you basically looking for a FHG in your 1.5 and 2.5 strategies? Then trading out? Or is that over simplifying things a bit?

Seems to be good value on the Sheff Wed v Hull match today going by BTC stats/Betfair goal markets, unless Iβm missing something.
