Every prediction on this page is researched and written by a named tipster — not generated by an algorithm and not lifted from elsewhere. Andy Clark, Jake Gray, Brian Healy and Ciaran Murphy each cover their own areas of expertise, from Premier League match previews to Champions League bet builders to weekend accumulator selections.
Our predictions cover the matches punters are searching for: Premier League, Champions League, Europa League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup, Scottish Premiership, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1, World Cup qualifiers and the major international tournaments. Each preview combines team news, recent form, head-to-head data, expected goals (xG), home and away splits, and tipster judgement to land on selections that have a credible reason behind them.
What our predictions are not: recycled odds comparisons, AI-written filler, or “100% confidence” picks designed to grab clicks. If a tipster doesn’t have a confident view on a fixture, we don’t preview it. Quality over quantity is the standing rule.
Every match prediction follows the same structure, so you can skim quickly to the bits that matter to you:
The biggest betting market in UK football. We preview every Premier League fixture — typically Friday evening through Monday night — with bet builder, both teams to score, correct score and accumulator angles covered separately where relevant. Our Premier League predictions feed covers every weekend and midweek round.
Tuesday and Wednesday evenings during the European football season. Group stage predictions tend to favour the bigger clubs at home; knockout rounds bring tighter pricing and more betting value. Our bet builder tips section covers Champions League fixtures specifically because the deep market depth makes same-game multis particularly effective.
FA Cup and Carabao Cup previews are often where the value lies — Premier League sides rotate squads, Championship and League One sides raise their game, and the markets price the fixtures less efficiently than league football. We cover the major rounds (third round onwards) plus all televised cup ties.
World Cup qualifiers, Nations League, World Cup tournaments and Euros. The depth of coverage scales with the importance of the fixture — a Tuesday-night World Cup qualifier between mid-table European nations gets one preview, an England knockout match at a major tournament gets multiple angles (match result, BTTS, goalscorer, bet builder).
La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A and Ligue 1 are previewed on weekends. Coverage is selective — we focus on fixtures with clear betting angles rather than churning previews for every match in every league.
A prediction is a recommendation, not a guarantee. Here’s how to use them as part of a sensible betting approach.
Treat each tip as a single decision, not a guarantee. Even strong selections lose. Across a betting season, a tipster hitting 53-55% of their main picks at average odds of around 6/5 is doing well. The right way to judge a tipster isn’t whether last weekend’s tips won — it’s whether their picks have positive expected value over hundreds of selections.
Find value before you commit a stake. If our tipster recommends a selection at 5/2 and your bookmaker is paying 9/4, that’s worse value than the analysis assumes. Always check the price. Our Best Odds Guaranteed guide explains how to lock in better prices on horse racing picks.
Use a stake plan. Most professional bettors stake 1-3% of their bankroll per bet. Don’t double up after losses, don’t chase, and don’t let one strong feeling about a fixture override the size of your stake. Set a stake size before the weekend and stick to it.
Combine selections sensibly. A 12-fold accumulator at long odds is a lottery ticket, not a strategy. If you want to combine our picks, doubles and trebles concentrate value better than long-shot multiples. Our accumulator tips page covers smart accumulator construction.
Track your bets. Whether on paper, in a spreadsheet or in a betting tracker app, recording every stake and result is how you find out whether you’re actually winning over time. Most punters who think they break even are actually losing — and most who think they’re winning are losing more than they realise.
Yes. Every prediction and tip on thatsagoal is free to read. We’re an affiliate site funded by partnerships with UK bookmakers, not a paid tipping service. There are no membership fees, no Telegram-only tips, no upsells.
Daily during the football season. Premier League weekend previews go live by Friday evening at the latest. Champions League and Europa League previews land on Monday or Tuesday. International fixtures are previewed in the days leading up to kick-off. Our Bet of the Day is updated every match day.
Named tipsters with specific specialisms. Andy Clark covers cards markets and Premier League previews; Jake Gray writes bet builder tips and goalscorer markets (his Liverpool 66/1 FA Cup Final winner is one of the site’s most-cited successful selections); Brian Healy writes horse racing previews, including Lucky 15 selections; Ciaran Murphy contributes to weekend coverage. Every article carries the writer’s byline.
In our content, “prediction” describes the broader analysis of a fixture (what we expect to happen, including the most likely scoreline and key talking points), while “tip” refers to the specific selection the tipster is recommending you bet on. A prediction article will always include at least one tip with stated odds and reasoning.
We organise predictions by both fixture and market. For market-specific betting:
Yes, but in a separate section. Our horse racing tips cover NAP of the Day, Lucky 15s, ITV Racing previews, and major festival selections including Cheltenham, Royal Ascot and the Grand National. The Predictions category here on the site is football-focused.
