God, I am bored (and the Snooker has finished very early today!):

The management (meaningless) Stat Of The Day© today = Hoffenheim games have produced +3.50 goals in 14 of their last 15 matches.

Over 3.50 goals for tonights match, away at Ausburg, is currently trading at about 3.00 (2/1) on here, having been a bit bigger earlier today.

Admittedly, six of those 15 games games were meaningless "club friendlies" and one was a cup match - but that still leaves them producing +3.50 goals per game in 7 from their last 8 league matches.

Their opponents (Augsburg), have averaged over 3 (3.05) goals per league match across their 20 league games played so far. They're not as prolific as Hoffenheim (who average 3.40 goals per league game so far) but Augsburg themselves have produced +3.50 goals in 7 of their last 12 league games.

The recent head-to-head for these two teams has seen them produce +3.50 goals in 6 of their past 8 meetings.

It's football - therefore past performance doesn't always equate to future results in any way, shape or form (so anything could happen!) - but in context of the numbers i have shamelessly manipulated (above) to argue my case, 2/1 seems a fair price for +3.50 goals tonight.

For those of you that don't like too much parentheses, I say, tough sh1t!
For those of you that like a (meaningless) stat - may the odds be ever in your favour! GL
For those of you that say: wrong forum muppet! - I say - have a look at some of the other sh1te that is getting posted lately.

If i was an utter tw@t my response would be "watch and learn!" - but luckily for you, I'm not an ignorant, self-absorbed Rsole.

But thank you (as ever) for the detailed and well thought-out counter argument that you have put forward! BlushLaugh

Football is a fickle game Foxy - so no guarantees - but good luck to you - and it beats just blindly betting the long-odds-on team to win by Any Other Score! CryBlush

I've got no more idea than the next man! We are all "guessing" but I am at least guessing in context of the prices and at I have had the decency to cherry-pick and manipulate some data to support my case.

If I was an utter pr1ck, I would instead have just said - "It's there for all to see".CryLaugh

Agreed swifty - the counter argument (in a sport that is as fickle as football) is that they are surely due an unders!

I used to play the extremities, selectively in a lot of goal markets, mostly in friendlies, obscure leagues and u17, u19, u21, u23, etc because they are difficult to price (imo) and therefore people make mistakes. Totally agree, It is very difficult to have an advantage in the mainstream leagues - but the German Leagues have been fruitful (at both extremities) these past few years.

Kenbo - cheers.
Fartyface - I have put up a Stat Of The Day© many times before (usually snooker or football) and I think I have a 100% strike rate (mostly at evens or slight odds-on).

It's just a bit of fun - but fun with reasons!

Fartyface - If you want a moronic, humourless, boring, monotonous thread that just puts up pretend selections at pretend prices with pretend stakes and no rationale or reasoning - I can recommend one for you - but you've probably already seen it imv!

"If I was an utter pr1ck, I would instead have just said - "It's there for all to see".CryLaugh"


.......and if you weren't, then perhaps the thread title could just have read "Stat of the Day", or "Meaningless Stat of the Day", or even "The Management (meaningless)!, Stat of the Day", as we can all see who started the thread.
Perhaps the conclusion could have been less aggressive as well.
There is no chit chat where "some of the other ****" can be posted, but there is a football forum..... hthWink
