Points /100 · the board keeps its bad weeks · 18+
Football predictions with the losing weeks left in
This is a board, and a board is only worth reading if the rows that went wrong are still on it. A tip goes up with the time it was posted, gets its result written beside it once the match is over, and stays put either way. Underneath the tips the bookmakers sit on the same board, each carrying a figure out of 100, and the five weights behind that figure are published in full on Our method: getting money back out holds the largest single share, close to a third, while the games catalogue, the welcome offers, the support desk and the licensing take roughly equal slices of what remains. Four of those five have almost nothing to weigh yet, because these companies publish a permit block and little besides, so what actually separates the rows today is that block, and the table below takes it apart into three columns. Read all three the way you would read a company describing its own paperwork, because that is what it is. This page passes the wording on; it does not sign it.
Today's predictions
NaijaPredictions publishes football tips for readers in Nigeria and keeps the losing ones on the page beside the winning ones. That is the whole product. This market is not short of feeds promising total certainty; it is short of feeds that leave a bad week visible afterwards. Pages here are built light on purpose, because a reader on a Nigerian data bundle pays for every megabyte before a single tip loads.
The day's card sits at the top of this page and rebuilds when the fixture list does, not on a rhythm chosen to look busy. Each entry names the match, the market, the price quoted at a named bookmaker and a confidence label, and each one keeps its result attached once the whistle goes.
Coverage leans towards the fixtures people here actually stake on, so the NPFL sits in the same card as the English, Spanish and Italian top flights. Kick-off times are printed in West Africa Time.
All three columns are readings of one thing: the block of small print at the bottom of the bookmaker's own site. The first repeats the place named on the top permit line, which on this board comes out as either the whole country or a single state. The second counts how many separate permit lines that block carries, and the spread across these rows runs from one to three, which is worth seeing before you read much into any single line. The third is the column that decides what the other two are worth, because some blocks put a body's name beside the number and some print a bare number with nobody attached to it. Nobody here has opened a register to confirm a word of it. Row order is the points, and the five weights behind the points are set out on Our method.

How we analyse matches
Every selection starts from the same inputs: form over a fixed window of recent fixtures, goals scored and conceded split home and away, the head to head where the sides have met lately, and the price on offer. When the price does not pay for the risk the match gets no entry, and a thin day is an acceptable outcome.
One category is permanently out of scope. Crash and aviator style games settle their multiplier on the operator's server after the round opens, so nothing readable exists beforehand, and any product sold as a predictor for them is selling a number it cannot have.
Our published record
Every tip this site posts lands in the archive at /record/ with its price, its result and the running return. That archive is empty as this page goes up, because the feed is new. Saying so is cheaper than inventing a hit rate, and from the first entry onward the archive only grows forwards, losses included.
How to read a prediction
A confidence label ranks a selection against the rest of that day's card. It is not a probability checked against outcomes. Odds shown are the ones seen at a named operator at a stated moment; the price your own account is offered is the one that counts, and it moves.
