Hey, I'm new to sports betting. Could you give me a brief explanation of what these numbers mean?

Thanks

2-0 means two winners and 0 losers from the quoted bets (over 2 and over 2.5 he considered different bets i guess) +2u means 2 units profit

14-16-1 means 14 wins, 16 losses and 1 void. +1.94u is how many units hes up

So the +1.94u is the expected profit?

The 14-16-1 is what I'm not getting. Would you explain to me a little more?

For example, when The Vig says "12-16-1 -.06u

Burnley/West Brom over 2,2.5 goals 2.06u-2u"

What does it mean 12 wins, 16 losses and 1 void? These are the odds provided by the betting site or his own odds?

12-16-1 -.06u is his record for this season. He placed 29 bets, 12 were a win, 16 a loss and one was voided (for example if he's playing o2 goals and the game ends with two goals scored the bet is voided and you get your money back). -.06u is the profit or loss he made overall, counted in units. I recommend the sportsbetting faq, it's a sticky here in the forum where the concept of units is explained.

Understood almost 100%. I realised I'm asking this kind of stuff in the wrong place. Definitely taking a look on this sticky thread. Thanks again!

Malmö FF
The confidence has never been higher, this is a great opportunity to earn the first points in the group stage. What is positive is that Malmö will be seen as underdogs against everyone, so they have really nothing to lose. Some examples, at home versus Prague they were priced around 4-5x, versus Salzburg as high as 6-8x and they proved the odds wrong on all occasions. Though, to put the hype in perspective - Malmö sold out all 3 home games in 15 minutes, that's around 70 000 tickets divided in 3 matches.

The form is great, confidence flying high for all reasons. Let's add that Malmö are 12 games unbeaten at home, winning eight during that time. Moreover: They are unbeaten at home in 7 games in UEFA competition, having kept a clean sheet in each of them.

That being said, a home factor is huge when Malmö plays. Not saying they are favorites, but the city and stadium will boil like never before. Forget Salzburg or Prague, this can be another chapter that earns Malmö more respect.

Rosenberg have hit top form right in time, along with winger Forsberg. Also the tall striker Thelin is a good target player who will win a lot of duels in the air like he did versus Salzburg. I do not doubt Malmö's quality, and truth is that every time you get Malmö at home as underdogs - it's an auto play. Especially against a pretty "even" opposition, at least Olympiacos are 'easiest' opponent to face in the group, and Malmö need to take advantage of that.

Olympiacos
Since September 2000, Olympiacos have played 42 road games in Champions League with a record of 7-7-28 (7 wins, 7 draws, 28 losses) which is actually a terrible record for a Champions League team of their caliber regarding how regular they play this tournament.

Sure, they opened up strong with a home victory over Atletico Madrid, but that was at home. The result have made the money move to Olympiacos here, quite confidently. How did they follow up the victory though? Two victories in the league, but before this trip to Sweden - By losing versus Atromitos on the road in the Greek League.

Player by player, the team is better than Malmö, but we have seen this before and how money means nothing. The poor road record is a factor, actually to only have won 7 out of 48 road games is below average for a team like this. Greek teams are defensively solid, but offensively a little doubtful. Malmö have kept several clean sheets in a row now, in European competitions, they will have a crowd of 23 000 backing them, Malmö have an ability to make better teams look bad.

I won't discuss whats good and whats bad with the teams - truth is that this is another attempt, hopefully just as successful as the previous Malmö plays. To see them in +300 at home is a joke, but I understand - they are not justified as a good home team yet. It's a bet equally divided by heart and brain. Tail on your own risk.

Plays
Malmö PK @ 3.00 (1/10)
Malmö +0.5 @ 1.91 (2/10)
Malmö win to nil @ 6.00 (0.5/10)

Wish I'd seen this earlier nicely done Consil.

Final score: 2-0....
