As you may already know from our 2017 Summer League tables, you now receive three separate tables for each league purchased. (Except Australia, see below).
Why? Well, we had an idea in early 2016 and experimented with it. Read about that brainwave here.
Why should I buy them?
Because they are the most effective and successful method we know of building a lucrative portfolio of bets targeting the sweet spots in the odds range. Read about our successful Summer League campaign here and our successful Winter League campaign here.

What You Get for Your Money
Instead of the usual one HDAFU table per league, you now get three. (Except Australia A-League, which is a whole season analysis only due to its size and lack of any recognisable mid-season break. The price of this table is now reduced to £10.00 GBP).
The new style tables presented here are also optimised for easy filtering.
Our recommendation is for a set of systems in several leagues, enough to provide you with a portfolio of at least 500 bets in a season. You’ll then have a chance of emulating our 2016 campaign.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a time restriction on the usefulness of the HDAFU tables?
The tables simulate the profits and losses by betting type for the last five complete seasons if choosing the same bet type for every game of the season. Therefore, the ‘natural’ cut-off point is the end of the following season when the tables have to be re-calibrated.
Simulating the profit/losses when betting on the same outcome over the last five seasons, the tables show a picture of the likely (expected) distribution for the forthcoming season.
If the bettor chooses a distribution which is equally spread over the year (e.g. underdogs in the German Bundesliga with odds between 4.0 and 17.0), then it doesn’t really matter when the systematic betting starts.
The HDAFU tables are a great help at any time throughout the season to provide focus upon profitable areas within your chosen league and allow you to refine your final bet selections.

What is the relationship between the HDAFU tables and the Value Bet Detector?
The HDAFU tables simulate profit/losses when betting systematically on one specific bet type, e.g. backing the home win, the draw, the away win, the favourite or the underdog. The Value Bet Detector is an odds and probability calculation tool for individual/particular matches of interest.
Both tools originate from the time Soccerwidow wrote match previews for Betfair and needed to identify games containing value bets for analysis. Here is a summary of those predictions.
The HDAFU tables were initially developed as a tool to recognise clusters of matches that were far more likely to contain value bets, and thus provide filtered sets of matches to preview.
We often receive questions such as, “Can the HDAFU tables and the Value Calculator support each other?” or, “What is the relevance of the HDAFU tables?” or, “Which methodology is better?”
Ultimately, both products are tools for odds calculation and understanding the betting market. The Value Bet detector is an analysis tool for individual matches; the HDAFU simulation tables is better for systematic betting in larger numbers.

How do I structure a portfolio and what is the best size for it?
“A portfolio is a package of bets where extensive analysis has determined the choices (picks)… This is an essential part of the whole betting strategy in order to reduce the risks of losing by diversifying.”
Now focus on the main expressions: extensive analysis… determined choices… whole betting strategy… reduce risks… and lastly… diversifying.
Actually, there is nothing more to say. Just spend some quality thinking time on it.
It totally depends on personal preferences, on the availability of betting markets to you, on your risk awareness, your understanding of probabilities and statistics, and finally, using all of this combined knowledge to make your best personal judgement, never losing sight of the fact that the bottom line is making profits.

Are the HDAFU tables for both, back betting and lay betting?
Yes. Although the HDAFU tables directly simulate what happened from a backing perspective over the last five seasons, they are obviously reversible and provide a sound benchmark for formulating lay betting strategies.
Large positive figures and rising curves within the tables indicate promising back betting opportunities, whilst large negative falling curves point to potential lay strategies.
The HDAFU tables come with an odds toggle as well as an exchange commission toggle so that the user can adjust the base figures where necessary – This is of great importance to those wishing to accurately analyse lay strategies.
Don’t forget that betting exchange odds are often ‘higher’ than the highest bookmaker odds and, of course, have a built-in commission surcharge levied by the exchange platform. The effects of these variables can be gauged using the toggle functions within each HDAFU table.

Why is concentrating on bet types more profitable than betting on teams?
The answer to this question is simple psychology, which often defeats the average punter.
There are millions of people who follow one or another team. They read all the news available, discuss form, players and managers, and everything else there is to think about when a match involving “their” team is coming up.
There are plenty of “must win” situations, and even if the odds seem a little short, bets are still placed on the team they support to win the game. Both reliance on luck and a lot of hope goes into each game.
Unfortunately, gut feelings are very often a false friend and team news also has no relevance to the ‘true odds’ of a game; little wonder that there are more losing punters than winners.
The HDAFU tables help the gambler to disconnect all emotions from betting. The figures show very plainly where to concentrate when compiling a betting system portfolio for profit.

Customer Comment
The results of your 2016-17 campaign are fantastic. I’m going to go through your campaign in detail and learn what I can about how and why you put it together and then hopefully go some way toward achieving what you guys did in that season.
One other thing I wanted to say about what you offer at Soccerwidow….the material – free and paid for – is so valuable and really does teach people what they need to know in order to understand the betting market and what is profitable and what is not, the pitfalls and the best way forward.
I’m very much like you in that I don’t see the value in blindly following someone else picks, but when someone doesn’t know the betting market or how to go about it themselves, blind following is what a lot of people gravitate towards.
With your products they really do teach people and empower them to be able to make their own decisions and do things the right way. I feel I have learned a tremendous amount since I found your website and am very much looking forward to putting it into practice in this upcoming football season.
Great job on what you guys do at Soccerwidow!

About the Author
Hi Soccerwidow / Right Winger,
again, i have also a question Nr. 3:
Will you make a tutorial for the adaption of the summerleague HDAFU Tabels for the new season then the seasons are all over? It would be very useful. Or a reduce fee for the buyers of the last seasons tabels for the new tables?
Hi Soccerwidow / Right Winger,
first of all gratulation for the fantastic HDAFU Tables! I have brought a lot of them and use them to paper-test a new system. I want to know two different aspects:
1. Can we all accept more HDAFU Tables in the near future like English minor leagues, Austria, Poland, Belgium, Russia, Switzerland, Denmark, Greece, Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Hungary, Scotland… ?
2. What is about Asian Handicaps in the HDAFU Tables? I think where will be a lot of systems to invent from.
Where can I get HDAFU Tables to use them in the current German “1.Bundesliga”
Hi Dirk,
we are in the process of getting the HDA tables ready… Another 2-3 days, and everything will be online and ready for sale.
Hello Right Winger!
I want to analyse the half-time markets, but I can’t find a site which shows the half-time results and odds. From where you got the Australian A-league half-time results and odds?
I know odds-portal has these results and odds but only if you can just click each and every one matches to see.
It would be good find a site from where we copy the whole results and odds as one, like we did it with the full time results and odds.
Regards,
Falconer
Hi
Are these tables not available for the English Premier League, I can’t find them anywhere can only see the summer leagues
Cheers
Hello,
Thanks for your answers!
Meanwhile I observed your previous ‘profit sectors’ free excel table, and I’m thinking that it would be ideal to collect the larger soccer leagues (12-15 of them) and in each league we just bet on by odds clusters (4-5 clusters groups in each league, which are profitable). We got 60-75 single bets, and for a single weekend we share this amount of bets to 3 days (for friday and the rest of the weekend). This size of portfolio is enough to reduce the lost cause by some ‘weaker’ (not follow the supposed statistical pattern by any reason) clusters? The average 10-20% profit could be realizable with this kind and size of portfolio?
Thanks,
Falconer
Hi Falconer,
Yes, this is effectively what we do. By removing the unprofitable odds clusters at one or both ends of the list (sorted by odds or odds ratios), we end up with the most profitable sector and bet on every game within the calculated parameters.
10-20% is a good average return although some systems we employ in some of the leagues we use return a whole lot more than this. Some systems fail but these are supported by the winning leagues.
The only time consuming thing is that at the end of each season, the match selection process has to be repeated by inputting the new season’s results and removing the old fifth season back to once again base calculations on five full seasons of results.
The “winter” league HDA tables will be available from around the beginning of June. Our own ‘season’ starts at the beginning of March each year – no other reason than personal preference and the fact that the “summer” leagues begin to kick-off around this time.
Thanks again for your contribution and good luck with your own analysis.
Hello again Falconer,
Personally speaking, we concentrate on bet types such as the home win, or the favourite at home, or the underdog away, rather than betting on individual teams. Our analyses are always performed by filtering out the unprofitable areas of a promising bet type highlighted by the HDA tables.
With ROI, I did explain in the text below the “Backing the Underdog” video that the ROI calculation was a very simplified one just to get the point across – have another look at it and click on the link provided there to find the full ROI explanation.
Combining many profitable systems based on odds clusters or odds ratios is the way to go in my opinion. Not only does it concentrate efforts on the ‘sweet spot’ in each league but it also compromises unavoidable losing streaks.
With the number of systems we have running together the chances that all bets in all systems lose in any given round of matches is pretty remote (less than one-tenth of one per cent), so the larger the portfolio of matches, the more they support each other.
I hope this helps and thanks again for your valuable contributions.
Hello Soccerwidow!
I found your site and articles very valuable, thanks for your efforts!
With my little excel knowledge I created my own HDA tables and l had been looking for teams, and odds clusters, patterns which could be profitable to bet on.
After filled with the datas (with average odds from Betbrain and betexplorer), I studied the tables. First I studied the teams, and for example in the English Premier League from 2009-14 Everton made a profit at home in each season (backing the home team bet option). I made an add-up for my excel which shows the current season, and I noticed that so far in this season Everton not so strong at home, and it seems that in this year it would not be profitable to bet home win for this team.
Of course I know that this is only one example and this season hasn’t been over yet, but my question is that: Is it a safer or better way not to bet on teams but bet on by odds clusters or bet on by ratios? Cause every year the teams’ conditions changes (new coach, a lot of injured players, etc) and I observed that the odds clusters not changes dramatically from year to year maybe.
Another question: I want to expand my tables with yield and ROI columns, and how I calculate the Roi when for example from 10 played matches 10 home wins happened? I watch the Australian HT market video tutorial and according to that calculation in my example the roi= net profit/(10-10)*lost matches stakes, which is 0. So am I wrong with this calculation?
Thanks in advance for your answer!
Regards,
Falconer
I would like to know if there is possible to have 2 small changes in the tables:
(1) Change ‘-‘ with ‘0’ for the year the team did not played
(2) On the total P/L formula change SUM(2014,2013,2012,2011,2010) to ‘2014+(2013*0.9)+(2012*0.8)+(2011*0.7)+(2010*0.6)’
Thanks
The tables are set up to show “-“ when there is no information for that team in that season (i.e. they did not play that season), and shows “0” when the team has played during the season, makes profit, but registers less than 1 unit profit.
With the passwords in every data tab, you can unlock the sheets you wish to change and make your own alterations to the formulas as and where you see fit.
Pro rating the profit/loss columns is certainly an interesting suggestion. I will look into this when the next upgrade is due. Thanks!
Many thanks for the spreadsheets. They are very useful.
I see you removed the lay options, they were very useful in some cases.
And is there any chance to add more leagues? I will certainly buy the table if you add more…
Many thanks for your repeat custom! 🙂
We can do any of the following:
Greece Super League
Scottish Divisions 1, 2 & 3
English League 1, 2 & Conference
We definitely have 8 more leagues coming up when their seasons finish. These leagues are:
Brazil Serie A
Finland Veikkausliiga
Iceland Urvalsdeild (a particular goldmine)
League of Ireland Premier
Japan J-League
Norway Tippeligaen
Sweden Allsvenskan
USA MLS
As we have a lot of Australian readers, the A-League is also a possibility, but this does not start again for a few months.
Regarding lay bets, the tables tell you what not to bet on, so if you are keen on lay betting strategies, you will know by default what to concentrate on – although lay betting for us is purely of interest in-play as ante-post prices are too high and exchange commission has to be paid on winnings, which makes it hard to make decent profits and avoid peaks and troughs in the profit curve.
About the additional tables, I was thinking more on the other Central and Eastern European countries, Japan or Latin America (when the new season starts). I don’t know how much one can bet on a Scottish 3rd division game. Is it possible to change the Scottish 3rd and 2nd division with any other main European Leagues (ex: Austria, Poland, Romania, Russia, etc.)? And if it’s possible to do more than 7 leagues I am very interested.
We can certainly look into some of the Central and Eastern European countries you suggest. However, Romania is one that we wouldn’t bet on personally as our contacts there tell us that match fixing is so rife that the league is a sham.
Austria, Poland, Russia, Switzerland, Denmark, Greece, Czech Republic, Bulgaria, and Hungary are all possibilities. We will add them within the next few days and let you know.
Take care and best wishes,
Soccerwidow
