Searching for betting tips

Betting tips are sorted by day. We do not offer exact match start times at this time. The betting tips and predictions are further sorted from the biggest and most important leagues to the less popular ones. In the left column of the menu, you can of course search for a specific league competition that you are interested in. At the end of each day, the matches for which we do not have a betting tip are listed.

Ice Hockey - best betting tips

To search for betting opportunities with a higher probability of success, you can use the following link, where the betting tips for the next week are sorted by the probability of success of the prediction.

Ice Hockey - free betting tips

We offer all our betting predictions for free. Our betting tips are the result of a mathematical algorithm and can be a good helper when betting on sports results. However, you cannot just follow them and consider them as a guarantee of success. Betting on sports results can be addictive, so if you bet, bet wisely and only the amount you can afford.

Our goal is to be informative, objective and reliable. But there is no guarantee that, even with the best advice available, you will become a successful punter. We ask you to bet responsibly and only on what you can afford.

Why I see by some matches instead of predictions or betting tips the question marks „?“ ?

It´s simple. Our algorithm need to be played at least 6 league games (at least 3 home games and at least 3 away games). If not, we can not give any prediction.

What is output of your predictions and betting tips?

The key output of our algorithm is INDEX. Our software calculates also the percentage probability of home team's victory, draw and visiting team's victory and recommends tip 1, 0, 2, 10 or 02. Unlike other betting sites we also provide the most probable final score of the matches.

How can be INDEX interpreted ?

INDEX can be interpreted as twice the amount of predicted goal diference between home and away goal scores. With the plus sign in favour of home team, with minus sign in favour of away team. E.g. INDEX -4,0 means that our software predicts win of the away team for 2 goals, INDEX +3,0 means that our software predicts win of the home team for 1,5 goals.

How is INDEX calculated ?

INDEX is based on two main components – current form and power of every team. Current form is calculated from last 6 played games. Power is calculated separately for home games and away games.

Why are your betting tips color differentiated ?

Color sorting serves to your quick orientation. Green color represents prediction of home win, red color away win, light green home win or draw and light red away win or draw.

Do you consider also the non-statistical elements as a players injuries, speciál motivation and so on ?

No, our predictions and betting tips are based solely on mathematical algorithm. It is just about statistics ! Sport can be unpredictable and there is no magic formula ether. In order to choose good bets you need knowledge, experience and an extensive understanding of the game. Our alghoritm can be only one of your guidelines and aids. The slightest change in events can change the direction of the game such as the weather, teams training, injury and player’s suspension can affect the odds.

Which other elements do I have to consider together with your predictions and betting tips ?

Many. For example - is there any of the teams good players injured or suspended ? Is there any good players back from suspension or injury ? Playing against ex-players or manager. Distances to travel, extent of travelling support. Need to win factor such as promotion, relegation, etc...
