Our methodology

Each analysis and final selection is prepared manually as an editorial judgement. Depending on the fixture and the evidence available, the review may consider recent and season-long form, home and away performance, goals scored and conceded, over/under and both-teams-to-score patterns, relevant head-to-head history, competition context, and verified information about squads, transfers, injuries or coaching changes.

Reliable xG and xGA data may be considered when available, alongside market odds, implied probability and comparisons between markets. No statistic automatically determines a pick. Sample size, quality of opposition, tactical matchup, schedule and the possibility that historical trends do not continue are weighed together.

Head-to-head records and historical probabilities describe past observations; they are not forecasts with certainty. Small samples and uneven opponents can make an apparently strong percentage misleading.

The reasoning, written analysis and selection are manual editorial work. Rule-based site processes separately organize fixture data, scores, standings and the settlement of completed results. Those operational processes do not write an analysis or decide a selection.

When odds appear, they are recorded during preparation or publication and may vary by bookmaker, region and time. Their later availability is not guaranteed. Decimal odds may be converted into implied probability for comparison, but the market margin and changing prices mean this is not a promise of the true chance of an outcome.

Factual claims should be checked against relevant, identifiable sources, with direct HTTPS links preferred over generic homepages. Source relevance is reviewed editorially; the presence of a URL alone is not treated as proof.

The 52 legacy analyses have completed source migration: 16 have verified status and 36 retain an explicit partial status because the available source coverage does not independently establish every part of the recorded pick. We do not invent or backfill sources, bookmaker names or capture times. New publications require verified source coverage, and new quoted odds require provenance and capture time.

Football is uncertain, data can be incomplete, team news can change and every selection can lose. The publication provides analysis, not a guaranteed outcome or profit. Review the complete prediction results, our editorial policy and responsible gambling guidance.
