Winning Margin
To be a successful bettor, one needs a high level of confidence in one's ability when it comes to beating the bookies. The knowledge of the risks involved is not to be forgotten because every ticket carries a level of chances with it, no matter the research and analysis put into the prediction of any football match. These are done to reduce the chances of predicting the outcome of football matches wrongly based on going with your gut feelings, favouritism, or uncontrolled emotions. The winning margin is implemented mostly by those who find it hard to predict the correct score of matches.
Trying to predict the exact score of a football match is about the hardest thing to do when it comes to football betting. Punters sometimes manage to get it right but most times it is a question of miss rather than hit with the prediction. So going with a betting market with a higher probability of wins and profits with the right methods in place is the only choice one can make.
What is Winning Margin?
The winning margin bet is when you place a bet where you predict how many goals the team who wins a match will win. A simple illustration is when you bet on winning margin with 2 goals, the team needs to win with 2 goals, i.e. 2-0, 3-1, etc. It helps that winning margin doesn't take into consideration which of the teams wins with the margin, only the total margin, making it very easy for punters. With this betting market, punters don't have to predict which team wins and the margin they will win with.
How To Predict the Winning Margin?
As mentioned in the first paragraph of this article, you need to believe in your ability. A lot of research and analysis by the punter is also very necessary to improve his knowledge. It is hard but it is not impossible to do as shown by the fact that it is popular among bettors. It can be done by using statistics of the head to head record of matches between the two teams, attacking and defensive stats of the season for both teams as well as the current form of the teams. When all these data are combined, it gives a punter an inkling of what to bet on as the winning margin in the match. This is however not accurate for all games as football is unpredictable and results can change from game to game. In the long term, the statistics should be favourable and bring good profits.
Another Method Used by Punters
The easiest way to predict the winning margin is to predict a difference of 1or 2 goals in a football match. This has been statistically proven to be the most popular winning margin regardless of the league, match or period of the match. But still, a little research should be done to ensure that the right winning margin is implemented for the right matches. This betting market is proven to be very favourable if a punter puts in the work required to make it work.
