This is where the fun in sports betting lies. You can find value in a market when a bookmaker prices up something at odds longer than what you believe the actual odds should be. I'll give an example: a few seasons ago Bet365 had Gylfi Sigurdsson to score twice vs Fulham at 50-1. Absolutely ridiculous odds considering he was an attacking midfielder who had been banging them in in the last few games, and I would have priced it at 15-20/1. Stuck a fiver on and he duly scored twice in the first half. Easiest 250 quid I ever made.
