I think you would be better of backing, rather than laying the side who score the first goal. ''Laying the leader'' as it is sometimes called, is flawed the pre match backers of the leader are usually scrambling about trying to green up, depressing the value IMO.

not laying the leader title of was changed read the start of thread

a bilboa 1-2 bet won

a bilboa profit £31.80

dortmond u 3.5 £58 @1.86

back o 1.5 osa v tenerife £60 @ 1.41

I'm confused already !!

be confused

I will, but not as you might, picking without reason and little regard to prices. Good luck as you will need it.

£130+ profit
but got 3 losses looking likely
£60 osasuna
£75 chelsea need o 2.5
£58 dortmund need u 3.5
so will be down nearly £60
was better off putting my £100 on a double

Personally, I like to make sure that I will not lose my stake if the team I have backed loses its lead but I must admit that many times the price seems to be too high (fortunately, simply laying the leader is just one option among many others). However, I am not sure whether your generalization is valid because there are other psychological factors as well which point into the other direction. If you have some statistics which supports it that would be interesting

Edison, good post and I agree with you. Generally speaking I would favour backing the leader for the reasons given, that is the scramble to ''green up'' favours the backer rather than the layer but I have no evidence to back that view. :(
