I am using the Lay The Home Team strategy I have been testing, it has done well in testing so far but still early days so these are not tips.

Martin

@Richard-Latimer yes include 2%

GREGORIOS KARASHIALIS

@Stephen-Hancox did you win

Alex Rendell

@Richard-Latimer surely we're deducting 2% on all winnings?

Richard Latimer

@Martin are we including commission?

I'll get the ball rolling:

All selections are going to be from my lay under 1.5 system. I'll post up here along with any stipulations on odds. As I place bet 5 mins prior or sometimes the night before if it's an early early kick off I will update whether it's a trade or not.

Net Eerste must be no higher than 7 to lay
Aus A-league must be no higher than 6.6 to lay

So the very first trade I forgot to post again just before kickoff. Odds on Den Bosch were around 6.0 but I can't check exact again at the moment as there is a problem with betfair for me.

Oddsportal will confirm this however.

Betfair playing ball again. It was 5.9.

Final score 3-0

Odds on early morning trade no good.

Thats +£10.00 or £9.80 depending on whether we are adding commission or not.

Great to see so many entries! I will be picking some over the weekend for a lay home strategy I am testing, didn't have any qualify today.

Alastair Todd

Backing over 1.5 goals. None are currently matched but I hope they will be shortly after KO (is that within the rules)?

Elversberg v Karlsruher. 1.26
Den Haag v Eindhoven FC. 1.26
SV Werder Bremen v FSV Mainz 1.30
Montpellier v Lens 1.30
Parma v Lecce 1.30

Result: 1 loss and 4 wins = -0.12 pts

Wayne Thomas

Four selections for over 1.5 goals.

Been testing this value system for Over 1.5 since the beginning of January. Fairly promising start so let's see how it goes moving forward.

Selections are from an initial filter based on O1.5 percentages in last 10 games. Final selections are whittled down depending on av. goal rates and value (based on the O1.5 percentages.)

EDIT Scratch the Mexican game. Just realised that counts as tomorrow.
