@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

Just found this on the Sportsbook for tonight's game.

Looks like good value to me!

@Alex-Rule 100% not a bad rule for money in life either!

@Martin Yep end of month big admin day for me after holidays the last couple of weeks.

Spreadsheet tidying and strategy reviews. Very exciting stuff for a Saturday but seems to be paying dividends at and setting up for future success.

@Greg-Mitchell

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

Simon Bates

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

@Alex-Rule I'm annoyed now as I should have sent the stats from their match at the weekend, the away team were dominant (against 10 men)

Alex Rule

@Martin bit of a shocker there lol

I guess maybe more stats for home and away are needed to get a better feel for the league. Pretty early on on their season.

Still, first time using the daily stats sheet so we will see if any other nuggets pop up!

Martin

@Alex-Rule they did ok in the away game a couple of days ago but then Fred were down to 10 men early on

Alex Rule

Anyone else liking the look of Tromso v Fredrikstad?

Laying the home team - stats look pretty decent for the price - if Fredrikstad score first you could green up nicely I would have thought.

Alex Rule

@Greg-Mitchell Cheers Greg - will have play later on

Can someone help me out with a basic spreadsheet formula?

All of my tracking currently uses total staked at the amount - however on LAY strategies it would be more accurate to use stake x odds to get the true staking value per pick. Does that make sense? Any easy advice for an amateur spreadsheet user would be appreciated. Cheers!

Add a column for Liability. so if you have say for example:

Column A is Bet Type (Back or Lay), Column B is the current one you have for stake, Column C is the odds and Column D is the P & L, add a column E for Liability.

If your data starts in row 2, then the formula in Column E should be:

=IF(A2 ="Back",B2,B2*(C2-1))

@Simon-Bates depends on how much faith you have in a FHG, so looking at the FHG odds they are short, one option is to wait in play for better odds. So you could look to enter at 15-20 mins.

I've found this game from Norways Obos Ligaen between Sandnes v Kongsvinger.
100% fhg goal, no 0-0's, can someone give me some ideas on how they would trade this game please.
Also check out all the games from this league tomorrow (Monday) they all have a high % of fhg

Ricky Simpson

A nice LTD trade in after 7mins using the stats email & the ratings page

Ricky Simpson

@Martin that sounds like a good idea.. no plans today, will have a look now for a couple of angles

Martin

@Ricky-Simpson have a siesta then Scandinavian leagues in the eve!
