Football Statistics

Well we are only 2 games into the Football, and I have provided the Championship HT scores which has not enough information to form any future results, but interestingly Bristol City have led 2-0 at HT for both their home games (worth a bet on over 2.5 goals).

Wolves have also led 1-0 at half-time, so worth a bet for a home win at half-time?

I normally notice one or two teams being consistent in certain results, but I need to wait 10 games in.

My current strategy is betting over 0.5 goals which is really low odds, but as there are not many 0-0 games I am doing reasonably well, but I tend to bet when the odds have risen a bit.

Football 25/08/12

Well that was an interesting weekend

10 of the 11 games in the Championship had 2 or more goals, and there was a higher proportion 7/11 where both teams scored. Only one game has finished 0-0 from the 36 games played so far, so if you betted on the over 0.5 goals you would be up (only by a small amount considering the low odds you get).


Championship Statistics

The Premiership had all the games score 2 or more, and there was 4 out of 7 where both teams scored.

Championship 21/08/12 - Result

Well, I should have expected that there would be goals for the midweek fixtures.

Championship Statistics

There was 64% for over 2.5 goals, and 73% for Both Teams to Score (BTS) which evened out the results

I have included the total statistics which is 23 games, and the overall result is over 1.5 goals is 16/23 (70%) and under 2.5 goals is 14/23 (61%), and Brighton v Cardiff was the first goalless game played in the Championship.

My betting strategy that I am using is looking at the over 1.5 goals, and I won tonight with the Bristol City v Crystal Palace at 1.45 which is not that much.

The other interest is betting on the BTS (Both Team to Score) when a team scores early, and then laying on the BTS which is around 3 or more. Then betting BTS when the odds are favourable, so you win around 50% of your starting stake. I didn't win in tonight for this as I picked Blackpool v Leeds,and the Sheff Wed v Birmingham.
I am still looking to see whether the odds for BTS is worthy of betting or laying, but the odds are 50-50 now, so cannot tell which way the division sway in this statistic.
The next games will tell me more (or less)...

Football 18/08/12

Well, football has begun again (at last), and I have decided to monitir the goals scored in the Premiership and the Championship, and whether there is any consistent teams that have certain results.

Championship statistics

So, after the Championship first game, the majority of games ended under 2.5 goals.




Premiership Statistics

The Premiership had 70% games with more than 1.5 goals, and 50% of games with under 2.5 goals.
The one that is interesting is the number of games that do not finish with both teams scoring (BTS), considering the odds are normally favourite for BTS
