FootyTipsFootball Value Picks
This board shows where our model most disagrees with the betting market. Divergence is a prompt to investigate, not a betting instruction — and our settled record below shows which bands have actually beaten the closing price.

Citable definition: divergence = FootyTips model probability minus de-vigged market implied probability from decimal odds, shown in both directions. Rows only appear when real odds snapshots are imported and at least three books quote a complete 1X2 market.

Biggest Model–Market Divergences
Every 1X2 outcome where we hold both a model probability and a de-vigged market consensus, ranked by how far apart they are — in both directions. Best price shown across 6 crypto sportsbooks. Research input, not staking instructions; odds move and probabilities are not guarantees.
No fixtures kick off in the next 7 days, so this board is showing the next matchday. Prices this far out move a lot — treat them as indicative only.
Has this signal actually beaten the market?
We settle this honestly. Across 74 settled matches with usable closing prices, we measure what each divergence band was worth against the market's closing price. Larger model-above-market gaps have not paid — if anything they have been the worst band.
| Divergence band | Matches | Closing-line value | Excess vs market favourite |
|---|---|---|---|
| Market more confident | 20 | +1.79pp | +0.00pp |
| Aligned | 16 | +0.85pp | +0.30pp |
| Model above market | 18 | -1.29pp | -0.30pp |
| Model far above market | 20 | -0.51pp | +0.12pp |
Closing-line value = the best price we showed 24h out, priced against the de-vigged market consensus at kickoff. "Excess" subtracts what you would have got by simply backing the market favourite every time — without that subtraction, normal favourite drift looks like skill. Sample is 74/104 settled matches (median closing snapshot 2.68h before kickoff); bands hold 16–20 matches each, so differences of a few tenths of a point are noise. Closing-line value is only measurable for the model's own top pick, so rows on other outcomes carry no historical evidence.

*EV = model probability × best odds − 1. This is what the bet would be worth **if the model probability were correct** — our settled closing-line record indicates it often is not. Best price = highest decimal odds across stake, bcgame, cloudbet, roobet, vave, duelbits (via OddsPapi). Snapshot: 2026-08-01T00:02:17.205Z. Measured overround & best-price data per sportsbook →
How To Read This Page
Decimal odds are converted into raw implied probability with 1 / odds. For each 1X2 market, the three implied probabilities are then normalized so the market totals 100%. Edge is calculated as model probability - market probability.
Read each row as a prompt to investigate, not a value signal. Our settled record shows the model has no demonstrated edge at picking sides, and the bands where it most exceeds the market have had negative closing-line value.
FAQ
What is a market edge?
A market edge compares FootyTips model probability with the de-vigged market implied probability from decimal odds. A positive edge means the model is higher than the market, not that the result is guaranteed.
Are these betting tips?
No. This page is a probability comparison tool. Odds can move, markets include margin, and football outcomes remain uncertain.
Why might no value picks appear?
If no licensed odds feed or private odds snapshot is connected, the page will not invent market edges. It only shows signals when real odds data is available.
