Favourite winning, drawing or losing, and 0-0 matches

How to set the favourite winning, drawing or losing, or only 0-0 matches, using the score at the moment of the alert.

For a bot to alert only when the favourite is winning, drawing or losing, or when the match is 0-0, you don't need any stats. You choose the score in Score at the moment of the alert, in step 3 (Conditions). This section only exists in bots during the match.

The scores you can choose

The score applies to the moment the alert goes out, not to the end of the match. The options are:

  • Any score: doesn't filter anything;
  • 0-0;
  • Draw: 0-0, 1-1, 2-2…;
  • Home winning and Away winning, with the lead in By how much;
  • Favourite winning and Favourite drawing or losing;
  • No. of goals in the match, for example Maximum of 1;
  • Correct score, from 0-0 to 3-3 (2-1 means 2 for the home team and 1 for the away team).

Favourite winning

  1. In Score at the moment of the alert, choose Favourite winning.
  2. In By how much, set the lead: Any difference, By 1 goal, By 2 or more or Choose, to type a range of goals.
  3. In The favourite is the one with, choose the odds: Strong favourite (odds up to 1.50), Favourite (odds up to 1.80), Slight favourite (odds up to 2.20) or Other odds…, to type the minimum and maximum odds.

These are the pre-match odds. The lower the maximum odds, the stronger the favourite has to be and the fewer matches get through. Odds from 1.01 to 25 cover almost any team, and the filter no longer says who the favourite is.

Favourite drawing or losing

This is the opposite scenario: the favourite isn't winning yet and has a reason to go looking for a goal.

  1. Choose Favourite drawing or losing.
  2. In How, choose Drawing, Losing or Drawing or losing.
  3. With Losing, set By how much: Any difference, By 1 goal, By 2 or more or Choose. With Drawing or losing, set Losing, at most by: Any difference, 1 goal, 2 goals or Choose.
  4. Choose the odds in The favourite is the one with, as for the favourite winning.

Example

a favourite with pre-match odds of 1.30 is losing by 1. It gets through with Losing (By 1 goal or Any difference) and with Drawing or losing (any margin), as long as the odds you chose include 1.30, for example Strong favourite (odds up to 1.50). It doesn't get through with Drawing.

The favourite doesn't count towards the 3 conditions

The bot needs at least 3 conditions and, for now, the favourite isn't one of them. A bot with the favourite drawing needs 3 more, from stats and competitions.

In a stat, if you choose Team with odds… in Whose, the favourite's odds are already filled in. That's how you ask, for example, for the favourite's shots rather than the whole match's.

Quick setup has a ready-made example, Favourite drawing: Over Limit FT, from minute 55 to 75, favourite drawing with odds up to 1.80, and three conditions on the favourite (Shots on Target, minimum of 4; Dangerous Attacks, an average of 1 per minute in the last 10 minutes; Ball Possession, minimum of 60). It is a starting point, not a tested strategy.

0-0 matches

To get alerts only for goalless matches, choose 0-0 in Score at the moment of the alert. It is one click and counts as 1 of the 3 conditions.

In the old builder, this was done with the Goals stat, from 0 to 0, for the whole match. You can still do it, but there's no need. If you add Goals, maximum of 0 to a bot that already has 0-0, the builder marks the condition as a duplicate and only counts one.

There are other ways to ask for few goals: Draw accepts any draw, No. of goals in the match lets you type, for example, Maximum of 1, and Correct score asks for an exact score, such as 1-0.

If you are looking for matches with no goals in the last few minutes, whatever the score, that is done with the goals average per minute. It is explained in the tutorial on 1 dangerous attack per minute.

You chose Favourite drawing or losing, with odds up to 1.80. To meet the 3-condition rule, what is still missing?
