There is no bigger dream than getting guesses correct after the end of the game. Betting is a game as well as a way of earning income. When playing it as a game, achieving the majority of the bets may earn someone some little pride. However, in the eventuality that one loses one guess out of 20 entries- the result is clear-no money for you.

Nonetheless, there are three ways that can guarantee a sure when placing bets. Here they are:

Rivalries

Rivalry is always a key part of the game. It comes with not only winning points for the teams but also the bragging rights. When placing bets, it is always prudent to assess the teams that play and the relationship they have especially with regards to the tournament. Derbies are just that fierce but may be unpredictable. In derbies, there is no favourite team and points can be won by more or less goals depending on the outcomes of the match as well as tactics of the coach.

For instance, when Arsenal plays Chelsea in London derby, it becomes a match that can go either way same us when they play Tottenham Hotspurs.

Madrid derby pitting Real Madrid and Atletico can also go either way, same to San Siro derby of Inter and AC Milan. Rivalries may lead to two things- scoring of many goals or no goals at all. Manchester derby between United and City is an example depending on the sharpness of teams.

Tendencies of player performances in certain games

It is important to evaluate the probable line ups when placing a bet. Some players have tendencies to score against certain teams or at certain venues or occasions. A good example is when Didier Drogba scored against Arsenal at will whenever Chelsea played Arsenal. Drogba also scored in all his Wembley matches.

Another instance is where Sergio Aguero has scored in more than half of his matches against big teams in England. Another instance is where Javier Hernandez could score against Chelsea regularly whenever Man United played them.  Another example is where Chelsea’s Eden Hazard has great record against Newcastle and therefore he has greater odds to score this coming weekend.

Coach tactics and records against one another

 Coaches have impressive records against one another. That can be a guideline of giving close 50% chance to the dominant team. A case in point is where Jose Mourinho has superior head to head record over Arsenal’s Arsene Wenger across the years. Another recent tendency is where Arsene Wenger has 50% plus winning chances against Antonio Conte’s Chelsea. Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool also boasts of superior head to head record over Manchester City but goals are scored either side.
