Tips for the Match Odds market for Independiente Medellin x Cusco FC

A good bettor is not the one with a high hits percentage, but the one who bets on positive expected value events. Our AI model knows it very well and has looked for these opportunities for the match between Independiente Medellin and Cusco FC.

And to do so, the algorithm analysed more than 1535347 matches on our football database looking for patterns to find the probabilities of the match ending with a victory for the home team, a tie or even a victory for the away team. Getting down to these values:

Is betting on Independiente Medellin worth it?

🔵 Independiente Medellin: the model predicted that the probability of this event happening is 73.44% and we know that avarage odds offered by the bookies are 1.35. That is, when you make 1000 bets of $1 like this one, you:

• Would hit 730 times – this would give you a profit of $255.50
• And would lose other 270 times – having a loss of -$270.00 with them.

Although this bet has some value, notice that the expected profit is just 💰$14.50, which is not worth the risk in our point of view.

Is it a good idea to bet on draw?

⚪ draw: the algorithm believes the chances of this event happening are 10.0% and we have noticed that the avarage odds offered by the bookmakers are 4.50. In other words, this means that if you made 1000 bets of $1 like this, you:

• Would hit 100 times – profiting $350.00;
• And would lose other 900 times – having a loss of -$900.00 with them.

Mathematically speaking, it is a negative expected value bet, because you would have an expected final loss of 💰-$550.00.

Is it a good idea to bet on Cusco FC?

🔴 Cusco FC: the algorithm believes the chances of this event happening are 16.55% and we have noticed that the avarage odds offered by the bookmakers are 6.14. This means that if you made 1000 bets of $1 like this, you:

• Would hit 170 times – this would give you a profit of $873.80
• And would have lost other 830 times – with a loss of -$830.00 because of them.

That is why this is a value bet. In the end, you would have had a final profit of 💰$43.80.
