I just saw this question and I think it's worth answering regardless of the time it was asked.

We should always establish the thin line between betting to make money and supporting a club for the love/affection we have for it. This understanding would guide us in knowing that the right prediction can't be shortchanged for anything else. It would be absurd of me to know fully well that my favourite team is no match for the opposition but still bet against the reality. I don't see myself enjoying a deliberate loss.
