How often do public perceptions and media narratives influence betting odds in ongoing leagues, and how can bettors exploit these discrepancies to find value bets?
This doesn't affect me in any way since I know that if it is a real match, there is nothing the media can do about it, it's all about the teams involved, there past and present information is key to selecting the right side. But this doesn't mean it doesn't affect some people, people are gullible, what do you expect? But the truth remains that if the media cries from now till tomorrow in terms of hypes and downgrading of a team for another, "what will be will be." This is not some sort of online market where rumour, hype, fake news and others can have a huge influence over them.
but you know that the media hypes and talks about certain teams performance isn't one that's just random and void of some information, right? We know that it's not good to allow those information play a greater role in our decision on our bets but you know sometimes those also helps give you a better narrative on what might possibly play out in certain game. Take for instance what's happening to Manchester United, we all know that the talks and series of downgrade all speaks to how bad the team has degenerated and that's going to affect whoever chooses to include them on thier betting list. If you're still positive and ignores these facts that's rampant regarding the teams poor performance, going on to bet on Thier win could lead to a loss in your bet.
Thier are different sources of information from the media and some sources are filled with emotion and false information, those aren't the once to be taken seriously but the ones that are of a legit source should give you an idea and a guide on how to go about certain games.
