Recorded before kick-off: supporting evidence

Recorded before kick-off, graded after the match

6 predictions recorded before kick-off. Right in 1 of 6.

Recorded before kick-off: saved by us from the source before the match started, with the time we saved it. Definition.

Score forecasts without a betting market price

Outcome checked. No betting return is attributed to these score forecasts.

8 of 68 score forecasts named the exact score (11.8%).

The result implied by the named score was right in 26 of 54 forecasts; the market favourite was right in 18 of the same 54 forecasts.

Some matches carry more than one of these forecasts: 54 forecasts on 26 matches.

A pre-match market favourite is known for 54 of 68 forecasts; the comparison uses only those.

The market favourite is the home win, draw or away win with the lowest price in our own odds snapshot taken before kick-off.

The implied result follows from the named score (2-1 implies a home win).
