How do you know if a prediction is reliable?

Before listing the five essential tips for successful football predictions, the first step is to assess the reliability of your prediction. To do this, it's quite simple: you need to compare the odds offered by the bookmakers for your prediction with the likelihood of it coming to fruition. In concrete terms, let's assume that you want to validate your Premier League prediction and bet on the match between Manchester City and Tottenham, for which Manchester City is the favourite. In this case, the most reliable prediction will be a victory for Man City, as the defending champions have more quality than Tottenham. The chances of a Citizens’ victory are therefore greater than those of Spurs. In this particular context, if the odds offered by sports betting sites are 1.50 for a Tottenham win (and therefore a Man City defeat), the "Tottenham to win" prediction will not be considered reliable. Don't forget to analyse the probabilities before placing your football prediction. To do this, here is a list of free tips to consider before placing your bet.

Our 5 tips before making your football predictions

After consulting our experts, we’ve come up with five essential tips for successful football predictions. Our specialists apply these tactics throughout the year, so be sure to take advantage of them! The tips are:

  • Take advantage of Bookmakers' bonuses
  • Study team motivation
  • Read the news to find out how the teams are faring
  • Analyse the particular skills of the teams
  • Determine whether the odds offered are attractive

For more information on each of these tips, simply read on. Our football experts give you the keys to successful online sports betting.

Tip 1: Take advantage of Bookmakers' bonuses

Before going any further in analysing a football prediction, you should already be registered with the best online bookmakers. Using sports betting bonuses, such as the Bet365 bonus, the 1XBET bonus, the BetOBet bonus or the BetWinner welcome bonus, will enable you to maximise your winnings from the outset, for whatever type of bet you wish to place. Don't forget that the aim of a football prediction is to place your bet with the bookmakers, so these bonuses can help you in this quest. To do this as well as possible, don't miss out on the welcome offers currently available from the betting sites. They will allow you to start making your football predictions with a nice buffer, mitigating some of the risk.

Tip 2: Study team motivation

Now that the bookmakers' context is set, the second thing you need to know is that motivation will systematically influence a football club's performance on the pitch. The stakes involved in a match (title, Champions League qualification, relegation to lower division, etc.) or the size of the match bonus are key factors in motivating a football team, for example.

But team performance can also be influenced by other factors. Is a player in a contract dispute? A new recruit is announced? Is an important player having family problems? These factors can also have a major influence on team and player motivation. When you consider that the difference in motivation between two teams can often make the difference in a football match, it's easy to see why this criterion is so important to the success of a prediction. At the end of the season, for example, it's not uncommon to see a big Premier League club with nothing left to play for being held to a draw by a club looking to avoid relegation into the Championship. In fact, it's quite common.

In modern football, the combination of sufficient motivation and a positive frame of mind is often decisive. Take the domestic cups, for example: every year, the over-motivated and happy "little thumbs" upset the odds against Premier League or Championship teams. The same phenomenon can be observed at the World Cup and Euros, where countries considered less strong put in impressive performances in the final stages. The general state of mind of the team can be seen in the statements made by the players, the coach or the directors of a football club. Announcements such as the appointment of a new coach can also have an effect on the team's short-term performance (often referred to as the “new manager bounce”). A change of coach desired by the players will tend to bind the team together and improve its performance in the matches following his appointment. The opposite is true of a coach who has been abandoned by the dressing room, but kept in place by the sporting directors. So take that into account.

Tip 3: Read the news to find out how the teams are faring

As well as analysing the teams' motivation, don't hesitate to keep abreast of the latest football news before placing your bet. It's always best to bet at the last minute, or at least until the lineups are announced (usually one hour before kickoff). Injuries, suspensions and other illnesses suffered by first-team players can have a big impact on the final outcome of a match. Don't forget, moreover, that they will have an even greater influence on a team's results if it has a limited squad. So take a close look at the team's results with or without the absent player, and you'll have a very good idea of what to predict for a match. Your sports predictions will be all the better for it.

It's also important to take into account the form of the team as a whole. You need to differentiate between home form, away form and overall form. Be careful! A series of wins over very weak teams is not necessarily a sign of resplendent form. If Real Madrid have just beaten Rayo Vallecano 6-0, but before that had suffered three defeats against Barça, Atlético and Real Sociedad, their balance will remain fragile. A key factor to keep in mind.

Tip 4: Analyse the particular skills of the teams

The fourth and penultimate major tip from our football specialists is to take into account the specific characteristics of each team in your predictions before placing your bets. Some teams are traditionally strong at home, while others have a reputation for travelling well. Teams with smaller squads often struggle in the middle of the league, particularly when they are involved in the Conference League, Europa League or Champions League.

The history of previous encounters also gives an idea of a team's ability to take on another team or another style of play. While this criterion is more important in individual sports, where an opponent's style of play may be more or less suited to a player, it should not be overlooked in team sports. History tends to repeat itself, and some teams are particularly successful against others. So, even though the squads may have changed completely since the last duel, the special atmosphere surrounding certain matches remains the same year after year and often influences the result. This is the case, for example, with the famous derbies, rivalries between two teams, (Arsenal-Tottenham, Manchester United-Manchester City, Milan-Inter, Atlético-Real Madrid, Lille-Lens...). Some teams will tend to galvanise in such situations, while others will collapse completely. Something to bear in mind when making football predictions.

Tip 5: Determine whether the odds offered are attractive

Last but not least, you should also assess whether the odds offered by the bookmakers are really worthwhile for your football prediction. As mentioned earlier on this page, it's vital to compare the odds offered by the bookmakers with the probabilities you yourself give the various outcomes after an in-depth analysis of the match in question. You can do this using the following formula: 1/odds x 100 = probability of an event occurring according to the bookmakers.

Let's take the example of a match between Arsenal and Tottenham, on which Bet365 offers odds of 2.20 for the Gunners to win and 2.80 for a Spurs victory, to illustrate:

  • 1 /2.20 x 100 = 45
  • 1 / 2.80 x 100 = 36

According to Bet365, Arsenal have a 45% chance of winning the match, while Spurs have a 36% chance. If you think, for example, that Tottenham have a much better chance of winning given the context, then you’ve identified a bet with a good amount of value and should therefore bet on the Lilywhites. This, of course, also rings true for the opposite scenario for an Arsenal win, as well as even betting on the draw. This is a calculation that should be made systematically before placing your bet, especially for a football prediction that will be subject to a large stake.

Premier League football prediction: who should you bet on in 2023-2024?

Premier League prediction - Football

This season, as has been the case for many years now, it is Manchester City who are once again the favourites. Last year, we were treated to a fierce battle between City and Arsenal for the title, with the Gunners pushing the eventual winners right up until the final few weeks. Obviously, for the sake of spectacle, we're hoping for another close year, with a real battle at the top of the table. However, with Guardiola’s already supremely-talented squad getting even better in the offseason with the likes of Gvardiol, Doku, Kovacic and Nunes, it’s the blue side of Manchester that has a clear advantage yet again. The odds offered by the bookmakers speak for themselves. This seems to be Manchester City's year again, and the odds are worth taking. Find out more on our page dedicated to the predictions of our Premier League experts!

The main odds

  • Manchester City - 1.36
  • Liverpool - 7.50
  • Arsenal - 9.00
  • Tottenham - 26.00
  • Brighton - 34.00
  • Newcastle - 51.00
  • Man United - 81.00
  • Aston Villa - 101.00
  • Chelsea - 151.00

Carabao Cup Football Prediction: who to bet on in 2023-2024?

Prediction Carabao Cup - Football

With Manchester City having been eliminated by Newcastle in the third round, the Carabao Cup trophy is up for grabs. Defending champions Manchester United will be looking for back-to-back triumphs, but they’ll be pushed by the likes of Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle. So, which team will ultimately win the trophy? 

First of all, it’s important to understand the context of this competition. The Carabao Cup (also referred to as the League Cup) is widely considered to be the least important of all the competitions. Therefore, it’s not uncommon for the big teams to name radically different starting 11s. However, there are a few reasons to like Liverpool’s chances to lift the trophy for a record 10th time. 

A big advantage for Jurgen Klopp’s side is the fact that they are not competing in the Champions League this season. That will mean there is a stronger likelihood that they field a stronger team in this competition with fewer important matches to rest for. Additionally, the Reds have excellent squad depth with the signings of Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Gravenberch and Endo. Liverpool are the current favorites but we still think there is good value in backing them at this price.

The main odds

  • Liverpool - 4.50
  • Arsenal - 5.00
  • Man United - 5.50
  • Chelsea - 6.00
  • Newcastle - 6.50
  • West Ham - 17.00
  • Fulham - 21.00
  • Everton - 34.00
  • Burnley - 34.00
  • Bournemouth - 34.00
  • Middlesbrough - 51.00

FA Cup Football Prediction: who to bet on in 2023-2024?

Prediction FA Cup - Football

The world’s oldest ever football tournament, the English FA Cup is one of the sport’s most prestigious domestic cup competitions. The third-round proper kicks off on January 6th, 2024, and is the unofficial start of the festivities as that is when the Premier League clubs join the fray. Manchester City are understandably the favorites to defend their crown after winning a historic treble last season. However, they’ll face some stiff competition with the traditional “big six” all eyeing up the trophy as well as a number of up-and-coming sides such as Brighton, Aston Villa and Newcastle.

Our pick to win the FA Cup in 2023/24 is Arsenal. The Gunners are the record holders in this competition, lifting the famous trophy on 13 occasions. Mikel Arteta was able to strengthen an already top-class side with the likes of Declan Rice, Kai Havertz and Jurrien Timber. With one of the youngest squads in the Premier League only getting better after each season, we expect Arsenal to break through this year and claim silverware.

The main odds

  • Manchester City - 4.50
  • Liverpool - 9.00
  • Arsenal - 9.00
  • Chelsea - 10.00
  • Man United - 10.00
  • Newcastle - 11.00
  • Tottenham - 15.00
  • Brighton - 17.00
  • Aston Villa - 21.00
  • West Ham - 26.00
  • Brentford - 34.00

English Championship Football Prediction: who to bet on in 2023-2024?

Prediction Championship - Football

As is usually the case in English football’s second division, the three recently relegated teams from Premier League enter the season as the top favorites to return. Leicester, Southampton and Leeds will all be out to replicate Burnley from last season as they won the league, and thus promotion, on the first time of asking. But which of these teams will ultimately lift the English Championship trophy?

Our pick to win the second tier of English football is Leicester City. The Foxes lost some key pieces such as James Maddison following their relegation last year, but they were able to keep hold of a good portion of their squad. They still possess some solid Premier League level talent in the likes of Vardy, Iheanacho, Ndidi, Faes and Pereira. Leicester have also made sensible signings such as the addition of Stephy Mavididi from Montpellier and Harry Winks from Tottenham. Additionally, the 2015/16 Premier League champions have seen the emergence of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall as a leading talent in the midfield position.

Leicester have already gotten off to an excellent start in the 2023/24 Championship campaign with eight wins from their first nine fixtures. We expect them to continue to build upon that strong foundation and be crowned champions of the English second tier this season.

The main odds:

  • Leicester City - 2.00
  • Ipswich Town - 6.00
  • Leeds United - 8.00
  • Southampton - 17.00
  • Norwich - 17.00
  • Sunderland - 26.00
  • West Brom - 29.00
  • Coventry - 51.00
  • Hull City - 51.00
  • Middlesbrough - 67.00
  • Cardiff City - 67.00
  • Watford - 67.00
  • Millwall - 81.00
  • Birmingham - 81.00
  • Stoke City - 81.00

La Liga Football Prediction: who to bet on in 2023-2024?

Prediction La Liga - Football

This season, as almost always, the two Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid will be battling it out to win the Spanish league title. Indeed, on paper, the two big clubs start with a clear lead over the other clubs, even Atlético. Real seem to have strengthened up despite the departure of Karim Benzema, and have mainly added quality to their bench, which cost them dearly last season. We can see Jude Bellingham and his team-mates being crowned Spanish champions this year. The odds are also very attractive, although the bookmakers can't really decide between the Catalans and the Merengues. Find out more on our page dedicated to the predictions of our La Liga tipsters.

The main odds

  • Real Madrid - 2.00
  • FC Barcelona - 2.20
  • Atlético Madrid - 12.00
  • Girona - 81.00
  • Athletic Bilbao - 151.00
  • Real Sociedad - 201.00
  • Villarreal - 251.00
  • Valencia - 251.00
  • Real Betis - 301.00
  • Sevilla - 301.00

Ligue 1 football predictions: who should you bet on in 2023-2024?

Ligue 1 prediction - Football

This season, as has often been the case since the club was bought by Qatar Sports Investments, Paris-Saint-Germain should win the French league title. With the arrival of Spanish coach Luis Enrique, the capital city club once again looks to be ahead of the competition from OM, Lyon, Rennes, Monaco, Lille and Lens. Although the odds on Paris don’t offer up the huge payday possible with some of the other teams, it's still the one we'd advise you to play at the bookmakers. No other team should be predicted if you want to keep a reliable bet. Find out more on our page dedicated to the predictions of our Ligue 1 specialists.

The main odds

  • PSG - 1.20
  • Marseille - 13.00
  • OGC Nice - 19.00
  • AS Monaco - 21.00
  • LOSC Lille - 26.00

Serie A football prediction: who to bet on in 2023-2024?

Serie A prediction - Football

A number of clubs are still in with a chance of winning the Italian league title this season, and Juventus' hegemony over the Italian league title seems to be coming to an end. After Inter three years ago, it was AC Milan the following season and Napoli last year. As for the 2023-2024 season, whether it's AC Milan, Napoli or Inter Milan, it seems very difficult to predict the future Serie A champion. Reigning champions Napoli, however, have retained their key players (Victor Osimhen and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in particular) and appear to be the most credible candidates for their own succession. Obviously, the odds are really worth taking, so don't hesitate if you agree with our prediction. If you like, you can find out more on our page dedicated to the predictions of our Serie A experts!

The main odds

  • Inter Milan - 2.10
  • AC Milan - 4.35
  • Juventus - 6.00
  • Napoli - 7.00
  • Atalanta - 34.00
  • Lazio Rome - 41.00
  • Fiorentina - 67.00

Bundesliga Football Prediction: who to bet on in 2023-2024?

Bundesliga prediction - Football

This season, as has been a constant for the last 11 years, should see Bayern Munich win the German football championship. With an already stacked squad containing the likes of Müller, Coman, Kimmich, Sane and wonderkid Musiala, the Bavarians were able to pull off a deal to add arguably the world’s best striker in Harry Kane. This makes Bayern far superior - on paper - to the competition from Dortmund, RB Leipzig and Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen. Although the odds on Bayern winning the title might not provide a profit of tenfold your investment, it's still the one we'd advise you to play. Unfortunately, no other team seems really capable of competing with Bayern. Dortmund were able to keep the title race going right up to the last second last year, and will try to replicate that same form this time out. Find out more on our page dedicated to the predictions of our Bundesliga specialists!

The main odds

  • Bayern Munich - 1.25
  • RB Leipzig - 11.00
  • Bayer Leverkusen - 13.00
  • Borussia Dortmund - 15.00
  • Stuttgart - 101.00
  • Union Berlin - 151.00
  • Wolfsburg - 151.00
