Head to Head records

The conditions can be generated where the teams which play incredibly can be matched up with the specific team, whilst in decline if let to face any other team. This can be proofed as a major reason for head to head records that must be considered in calculating the odds.

Injuries and suspensions

Injuries are a part of games. When it comes to athletes, they can get unexpected and unavoidable injuries while representing their teams, which can be the main reason for getting the red card suspension. There can be chances of the main player suspension as well, whose absence can give a great loss to the team. There are many examples in this field that prooves that injuries can get a big loss for the team, as in Los angleslakers were performing well in the game but suddenly due to injuries suspension the key player got red card and the team has faced failure.

Team lineup

Sometimes the team manager considers replacing the players, if he sees it as a most appropriate option, these things also affect in making the odds. The teams can get failure if the key player remains absent, the complementary player has to take the place. Thus team line up also affects the odds and indirectly the bettor who depends on these teams for making money.

Current form

The current form can be proved as a big factor in considering odds as the teams could be expected to lose again while having a terrible form or win again in other forms. Although there are chances when a winning team will pop out of a series of losses but they are just the chances or probability other than any rule.

Home and Away records
