Racing Up The Table There may be a massive table topping clash in this weekend's Spanish football when Real Madrid head to in form Valencia without their 2 big superstars but the value this weekend in La liga could be with little Racing Santander, fresh off the back of a demolition of Espanyol and a (unkown to the bookmakers) rising star named Canales on the goal trail. Racing are home to goal shy Xerez and look good price picks to grab another 3 points @ 3/4 while Canales can be had @ 4/1 anytime scorer or 75/1 for a brace on PaddyPower!(another Michael Owen perhaps?). Valencia will have no better chance of beating the new Madrid than this weekend with Ronaldo and Kaka both being out but I was hoping for a better price on the home win, although a score/win double with Villa may be on the cards. Watch out for another rising star as Athletic travel to Zaragoza. Yet to turn 17, Munain is tipped to be another Torres and could be value to get on the sheet. In the English Premiership, top of the billing is a now full strength Liverpool against an understrength Arsenal and I'd expect the reds, although in poor form, to be a decent pick to take all 3 points, with Torres on the scoresheet. Villa travel to an injury hit UTD and could be the value bet of the premiership this week to take that down with a (+1) handicap ...

What is expected Strokes Gained Course Fit ?

Bryan pioneered the concept of Expected Strokes Gained Course Fit (xSGF) in golf betting. xSGF can be predicted using my model below. For prospective golf betting tips it projects ahead of time how many shots a player is expected to pick up per round on average on a particular golf course. It's weighed against a neutral golf course of the same rating.

Golf Betting Tips Model

Input up to date player and course data (from the upcoming course fit manual 2024) into this interactive golf betting model. My course fit profiling model for golf betting tips uses highly evolved golf nuance and betting intuition, precise parameters and inputs based on Bayesian analysis, plus years of empirical evidence through observing, betting and documenting golf and stats.

What is Progressive Form in Golf Betting?

Progressive form in golf betting differs from current form in that players are showing a trend in the right direction in their recent scoring. Trending form has a high predictive value in golf betting and can also catch players under the radar at an inflated price vs their true betting odds.
