POWER RATINGS AND FORECASTS
(Trying to beat the bookie and retire since 2001)

Power ratings are calculated after every match but I've used varying methods during the years (still trying to find the best possible way to do this because it is hard to measure the elements of humans and luck). Different values from a certain amount of matches affect my ratings and I calculate those values with a certain formula and the result is a power rating. The bigger the difference of two teams, then more probable is that the bigger rating team wins. The closer the ratings are, then more equal the teams will be and matches can end up in any result (Most Probable Result (MPR) is therefore 1x2, although draw can be seen as a tempting choice). Remember, this isn't exact science!

Also remember: if betting was an easy way to earn money there would be no betting shops. And never ever put your household money to betting because you should be prepared to lose the money you are betting. Muista: jos vedonlyönnillä ansaitseminen olisi helppoa, niin ei olisi firmoja, joissa lyödä vetoa. Ruokarahoja ei kannata missään nimessä iskeä vedonlyöntiin, vaan jokaisen vedon kohdalla pitää olla valmistautunut siihen, että menettää rahansa.

Hopefully these ratings will help you someway to decide what bets you're going to make.

PS. My main focus will be on English, French, German, Italian, Scottish and Spanish football leagues. If I have time I may calculate other leagues as well.

Good luck and cheers,
