Football Predictions

Football is the most popular sport in the world and millions play, watch, and of course gamble on it. Our experts will regularly be giving you well researched analysis, the latest news, and most importantly predictions and tips for all the big footballing events. Read on to locate our regular tips page and all the details on how we form these predictions.
Here are our latest football tips for upcoming matches. We have looked at the recent form, head-to-head, statistics, and compared that with the odds to provide you with our in-depth predictions below.
When you bet on any sport if you wish to have the best possible results then you need to carry out thorough analysis and research to find the best value bets. We look at all of the aspects that will affect a match. We first look at up-to-date statistics, player and team form, injury news, and the significance of the game. Then we look at the range of odds available across the football sportsbooks on offer to help ensure that we are making bets with value.
With our football forecast, we will look over all the factors that are involved in betting success. We will not leave anything to chance, carefully covering all the details that matter. Our knowledge of football is virtually unmatched, and we have a strong understanding of both major and minor football leagues, the teams, and their players.
We are always looking to increase our football knowledge base. A great way to do this is to assess the most up-to-date statistics and data to make sure our predictions are of the best quality. We look at the stats of the top players from goal scorers to defenders and, of course, the man between the sticks in goal. This includes shots to goals, tackles, clearances, goals conceded, and penalty ability. We also consider team stats like predicted goals scored and conceded, win percentage and current form.
With these stats and information considered, we can then use them to start to build our prognosis.
Who is playing in a match will have a massive impact on what result we can expect. If a star player is missing, especially in a key position, then it will affect the performance in that area as well as team morale. Players who are coming back from injury are another important thing to look at. In certain games, managers will rest players as they are concentrating on a match later in the week or month, or will not be taking the competition as seriously as the opposition. Late changes on the team sheet can also make a big difference to how teams perform in the match in question.
We know that it is important to find betting value when you are making a wager. Finding an edge over a bookmaker is what can help us maximise our potential profits. This is why our research is so important; we look for odds that have a stronger chance of success than the bookmaker believes, which means we can find the best value bets.
We are more likely to find such wagers on niche markets like handicaps and proposition bet markets than match winners or both teams to score markets. So it is worth looking at all the markets available on a match rather than just the most obvious markets.
Our set of experts put a lot of time and effort into creating their football predictions. All the outlying factors are taken into consideration, so you know that all our football tips and predictions have been fully researched, analysed, and prepared for you.
With football being the most popular sport across the globe, there is a massive range of leagues and competitions. No matter where you are, we will have a prediction for you! We cover as many of the big tournaments as we can, including the following:
One of the main reasons for the popularity of football (as a sport to play) is that all you really need is a ball and a bit of space to set up a goal. The reason it is so popular in betting terms is that, despite its simplicity as a sport, there is a huge variety of markets you can gamble on. This means there are lots of chances to find value.
Below, we will take you through some of the most popular football betting markets you will find at almost every online bookmaker.
A simple bet that can be placed on who you believe will win the match. This market is also known as match result or full time result, most operators will show it as home/away and also offer the draw. In cup matches, this market can be offered with extra time and penalties included too, and it is then usually listed as who will qualify rather than who will win..
Let’s say you want to bet on Tottenham Hotspur to beat Manchester United in the English Premier League. You might choose to place a 1x2 bet or a Match Winner bet. Your wager will be successful if Tottenham wins, but lose if it is a draw or Man Utd win..
Handicap betting often provides greater value for the bettor than the more traditional match winner bet. A handicap is where you give one side a hypothetical head start or disadvantage so you can improve the odds against favourites.
So, let’s say Bayern Munich is playing Fenerbahce in the Champions League. The odds on the Bayern Munich win are 1.2, which does not present any great value. We could give Munich a hypothetical disadvantage of -1.5 goals. Now our odds on the win have lengthened to 2.3. For our bet to win, Bayern Munich must win the game by 2 goals or more in order to beat the artificial 1.5 goal deficit they started with.
There are over/under markets available on many different outcomes in a football match, including goals scored, number of cards, number of shots, and many more. Below, we will look at how one of these markets worked based on the number of corners during the 90 minutes plus stoppage time. You will pick a set number of corners, and the bet wins if the total number of corners exceeds or is less than your bet, depending on whether you have chosen under or over.
Brazil is playing Cameroon in the World Cup finals - you bet on over 10.5 corners in the match. There are a total of 13 corners. This means your bet is a winner.
A bet on who will score first is a bet on a specific player from either side to be the first player to score a goal. You will be given a list of all the players from both teams. Own goals will not count towards this bet but some bookmakers offer a promotion where if your player is substituted, the bet rolls over onto that player instead. This is not standard though. What is standard is that if your player does not play, or is substituted onto the pitch after the first goal has been scored then the bet is voided and stakes returned.
Inter Miami is playing LA Galaxy in the MLS, and you pick Lionel Messi to score first at odds of 10/1. He opens the scoring in the 25th minute, and you win your bet.
When betting “in-play”, you can bet on the next player to score after the first goal has already gone in as well, which can be an interesting market to study.
This is a simple market that predicts whether a player from either team will be sent off during the match and works very similarly to the first goalscorer bet. The main difference is that where as once a goal has been scored the other first goal scorer bets lose, in this case a player can be sent off second or third in the game and the bet will still win.
We will cover the main common markets in our bets listed above, plus any others that we feel may have particular value in a given match. We will always look to find markets that provide some added excitement for the bettor, where we can, and give you something to cheer on.
As football is a hugely popular sport, every bookmaker I can think of will offer odds and markets on competitions from nearly anywhere in the world. When we rate a football site, there are a few factors we consider, including the quality of odds, range of markets, and variety of tournaments and competitions. We will also look at the overall experience the site gives you in terms of mobile betting, live betting, and streaming options, along with bonuses and promotions specific to the sport.
Our top choices feature all of these aspects and more.
We also cover some other sports and special large sporting events in our tips. We will have regular basketball tips on the NBA, CBA, Euroleague, and WNBA. We will also cover all the tennis grand slam tournaments: Wimbledon, French, US, and Australian, as well as many of the larger tournaments and international tennis tournaments. Finally, we will look at major events in more niche sports so you can always have a good well-rounded overview of most major sporting events that are going on around the world.
Yes, with the right prediction, you should win more times than when you are betting blind. However there is no guaranteed profit with gambling as unforeseen things can always take place even with the best tips and predictions.
Most of the things we have discussed in this article will have a major bearing on predicting a result in a match, including player and team stats, team form, and injuries. Factoring these things in is essential.
While an element of luck takes place in any form of prediction, its importance is lowered by the amount of analysis and research you have put in pre-match. Experience plays a part as the more you know and the more you bet, the more likely you are to make the right calls.
Things to think about include the tipster's reasoning, their past performance, and whether they are thinking about the value of the bet rather than just if it will win.
It is usually better to use a diverse search method to look for predictions rather than just following one person. The more data you have, the more you can compare what the overall feel is for how a match will go.
Pre-match and early odds are often better and can be done with more research and more time. In play has its own excitement and merit, but is a little bit more ad-hoc, as many random things can happen when a game is in play.
