Newcastle United W v Wolverhampton Wanderers W

Women's Championship, game week 1 — UK time

Step 4 of 4 — The bookies' favourite markets.

What this step says

Too little in the bank yet to argue a view — the evidence below is what there is.

Skip to the appraisal — and the market

Newcastle United W: 22 league matches in the bank, all from last season. Wolverhampton Wanderers W: 0 league matches in the bank, all from last season.

The question this step asks

Step four is THE BOOKIES' FAVOURITE MARKETS -- over and under, both teams to score, and the two-goal lead that pays the 2UP offer out early -- read from what these two sides have actually produced, with the denominator on every figure. Still no price: these are the match's tendencies, not its odds.

How the counting works, once for the whole step: every figure is counted over ONE side's own matches -- Newcastle United W's numbers over its games, Wolverhampton Wanderers W's over its own. The two clubs are never pooled into one denominator; where a single figure for this fixture is wanted, it is the AVERAGE of the two sides' rates, and says so.

For the 2UP offer the fact that matters is a two-goal lead for one team or the other at ANY point, not the final margin. In Newcastle United W's own 11 home matches read, one appeared in 3 (27%).
