We can argue sports betting is about knowledge a person has about sports but at the end of the day, a person who merely goes with favorite, will also get his picks often right. So is sports betting actually about knowledge?

Well, I disagree if sports betting is said to be about knowledge if it's a big difference in odds. OFC the favorite team/athlete will win more often, because they have a strong basis to win. On the other side, I agree that sports betting is all about knowledge, this can be felt if there are 2 teams/athletes that have almost equal odds in the 1X2 bet. In conclusion, about knowledge or not, it depends on the case study of the match.
Exactly, it all depends on the case study if it's a game that is based on the athletics skill or strength or years of experience then it's about knowledge that one has about the match but if it's basically the statistics the level of your favourite is on the high statistics of wining then you're going to probably win the game but if it's not then you're going to loss. Basically I feel like we have been too debative about this gambling stuff, it's just a lucky based game if you win it's your lucky day.
