At that moment (): 9 counted picks. Pre-match picture set by our capture times, written · frozen at kick-off. Its filter: every prediction recorded before kick-off, from all tipsters and sources. In it: 9 publications, 9 distinct predictions, 9 with a comparable market, 9 eligible versions (one per tipster and market, published before kick-off), 9 counted picks (one per tipster, repeats counted once). Records found or added later leave these numbers as saved.
