Frequently Asked Questions
- Which FA Cup rounds do you cover?
- We provide predictions from the Third Round onwards, when Premier League teams enter the competition. This is when the tournament becomes most competitive and unpredictable.
- How do you handle lower league teams?
- Our AI adjusts for league tier differences and historical cup upset patterns. The model accounts for motivation factors and the unique dynamics of knockout football.
- How accurate are OddsFlow's FA Cup predictions?
- 22 settled bets across 2 FA Cup matches so far — too small a sample to quote a return from honestly, so we publish the counts and not a percentage. Every signal is timestamped before kick-off and settled at full time; the individual bets are listed on our performance page.
- Do you predict exact FA Cup scores?
- We publish a most-likely scoreline for FA Cup matches, from a Dixon-Coles model with a low-score correction, but we do not settle bets on it and neither should you: correct-score markets are the hardest to beat and our record is built on 1X2, Asian Handicap and Over/Under. The scoreline is context for those three, not a recommendation in itself.
- How much should I stake on each prediction?
- Our own real-money record uses fractional Kelly — a fixed share, usually a quarter to a half, of the mathematically optimal stake for the edge we think we have. Flat staking is the simpler alternative and costs less when the edge estimate is wrong. What matters more than the choice is that the size follows the edge rather than the confidence: the bets that feel most certain are not reliably the ones that return most.
- How do I read an Asian Handicap line?
- A whole line (-1, +2) refunds the stake if the result lands exactly on it. A half line (-0.5, +1.5) cannot draw. A quarter line (-0.25, -0.75) splits the stake across the two neighbouring lines, so half can win while half is refunded — that split is the whole trick to reading them. The draw is removed from the market, which is why the prices sit closer together than 1X2.
