Wiliam Hill Old Firm Special

None of their specials are generous - MUG BETS!

Just the 72 games then (assuming it’s league only).

Be better off backing over 0.5 and rolling the winnings into the next bet - they only play at the same time when they play each other.

Either way tho you’ll end up losing your stake.

They had 3 between them last season. Seems a disgraceful price shouldn't even be allowed offer it

if they had 3 between them last season why is the price disgraceful ?

in 2018/19 Celtic alone had 5 with the first coming as early as September.

Why disgraceful?

If they had 3 last year out of 72 games, that's a 1 in 24 chance of a 0-0, or a 23/24 chance of not 0-0.

So the chance of them all being not 0-0 is (23/24) ^ 72 = 0.0467ish which is 1/21.4

20-1 seems pretty fair on that basis unless my maths is faulty somewhere?

I didn't do the maths. I just thought it looked like a mug price. I wasn't basing it on the amount of 0-0 draws they had last season either. But I checked again and they actually had 7 between them last season. Don't know where I got 3 from.

A season special bet from a bookie with your money tied up for 72 games is muggy in itself but they always offer a mug price as well. You don't really need to work out the price, it's always way off.
