The Reality of Sports Betting Profitability

Can you make money betting on Sports? TLDR: Possibly, but not very much.

If you're reading this and have a strategy that enables you to bet profitably, one of three things is happening:

a) you're expriencing a short term period of profit but will ultimately revert to losing money ;or

b) you're in the minority of gamblers who are profitable, although you're probably not winning very much (nevertheless, well done, every little helps!) ;or

c) you're among the incredibly small group of gamblers who are able to make a contribution to their income, and possibly even live off their efforts.

This is perhaps not the view you were expecting, particularly on a football stats and bet tracking website. Well let's clarify the above statements further and then look at some possible options (spoiler alert: the conclusion above does not change).

Player stats now available!

Player stats are now available for the the "Big 5" leagues (EPL, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1). A wide range of stats are available for players on a per season and per club basis.

Individual player stats can be accessed via a Team's detail layout and clicking the links on the squad widget which will open the player sidebar providing a summary of the stats for the chosen player.   

(Note; for mobile users, the team pages are accessible by clicking on the team name in the match view headers).

For registered users, also check out the "Top 10's" player summaries. View a league and the player summary page will be available via the layout selector (top right dropdown)

Change default layouts via Settings.

A couple of new sidebar layouts and widgets have been added. 

These can be set to be the default layout in use via the "Settings" page (registered and logged in users only).
