A sum of money or valuable items that is placed on the outcome of a sporting event or other contest. These can be made with a bookmaker or sportsbook. This can be done in-person or online (where applicable). These can be on a wide range of events including horse races, football matches, and more.


Our editorial content strives to be highly informative and educational to our audience, especially for visitors who are new or relatively new to analyzing and predicting sporting event results. All of our content is created by informed writers with backgrounds in their subject area and reviewed for omissions or mistakes.

Our editorial team is run by individuals with many years of experience in digital publishing, editorial, and content production. Our editorial content is always marked clearly in any instances where it may be sponsored by a third party, though it is still reviewed by our staff to ensure it remains consistent with our company mission.
