Yippee! Tonight we have the first leg of the knockout phase of the champions league. I am positively moist with excitement! What a horrible clash though, with valentines day! I fear that valentines day will win tonight but the football will win tomorrow.<\/p>\n
I’ve been doing a lot of work on pre-off activity on the football recently, I thought I would take a fresh look at things. It’s surprisingly how\u00a0you uncover new things when you return with fresh eyes.\u00a0There have been some interesting new observations from unexpected angles, based mainly on work that is spilling over from more work on the pre-off horse racing. I’ve also been looking at the in-play stuff a bit deeper as well and have come up with a nice new\u00a0model. Now I just have to put it to use.<\/p>\n
Tonight I’ll be using some automation<\/a> to do some work on the markets before the match has started, while I am otherwise engaged. Don’t forget to fire up Soccer Mystic to have a good look at this evenings matches or why not link up some spreadsheets across multiple markets in the same match<\/a> to come up with a unique view of the market.<\/p>\n
