Win Percentages
Quick Insight
At the time of writing Ladbrokes had the head to head for Richmond Tigers set at $9.25, and $1.05 for the Brisbane Lions, This sets the bookmakers implied probability for both teams as follows:
Opportunity Bet
The bookies have absolutely slammed the door shut on Richmond, giving them just a 9.81% chance of winning. But our numbers suggest they’re more than triple that, sitting at 31.8%. That’s a huge discrepancy.
Richmond are paying a whopping $9.25, but based on our analysis, their true odds should be closer to $3.14. That’s massive value for anyone keen to take a swing on the underdog. Sure, it’s a risky play, but the potential reward is big.
In summary: This one’s a long shot, but Richmond offer a massive betting edge at $9.25. If our numbers are right, there’s a serious opportunity here with the bookies undervaluing them. High risk? Yep. But if you like chasing value, the Tigers are well worth a cheeky flutter (though we don’t recommend it).
What to do?
Brisbane on the head is a waste of time unless you’re planning on popping $1,000 on them, A win by 40+ is also only coming in at 1.53 which isn’t exactly decent value either, While sitting pretty in third they do want the top position so don’t expect them to slouch this week, last two games have been won by over 100 points so the Lions -47.5 is the best way to go in this game.
