Magazine pieces that explain the numbers on this page.
- How much the margin changes between leagues
The same operator holds back 5.70% in the Premier League, 10.59% in Ligue 1 and 9.88% across its whole listing. The league you pick matters more than the bookmaker you pick.
- What Under 2.5 means: how to read the Under/Over market
It wins on 0, 1 or 2 total goals, and it came in on 49.1% of the 254,498 matches in our archive. How often that happens league by league — and why a thirty-year average is the wrong number to look at.
- Midweek rounds and rotation: how much they really weigh on results
