How to Navigate Forebet.com and Forebet’s app?

We haven’t stopped developing and upgrading Forebet ever since its inception in 2009, and we continue to do so to this day. Our team is working on both a new version of the Forebet app, as well as a new and improved website layout for both mobile and desktop. We will, of course, update you as things progress.

As of right now, however, here’s what you need to know:

The Forebet App

While on Forebet’s website we focus on a wide array of popular sports from football to basketball, cricket, tennis, American football, baseball, and others, Forebet’s app currently focuses on football only. If that’s what you’re interested in, however, then you can find the following sections on our app:

1. Home page/Featured matches

On the app’s home page you can find all featured matches for today, tomorrow, and yesterday, all with win probabilities, 1, X or 2 predictions, correct scores, official coefficients, and HT/FT scores.

Clicking on each match will take you to its page where you can find even more stats, such as the H2H for both teams in all leagues or in any specific league, other predictions, such as over/under, both to score, as well as each team’s current form, recent matches, league standings, home/away record, squads, the Kelly criterion, and overall stats.

Below the list of featured matches, you can also find our featured previews for each match, each preview full of up-to-date information on each team’s injured/sidelined players, form analysis, expected squad and formation, and more.

Forebet’s team picks the featured matches for every day based on what popular leagues or competitions are in-play that day and which interesting matches there are. If you want to find all football matches and Forebet’s predictions, correct scores, and stats for them, you can go to the Predictions section.

2. Predicitons

At Predictions on Forebet’s app, you can look at all football matches played that day in any major or minor local league around the world. You can just scroll through the whole list or look specifically for upcoming matches, finished games, or divide them by league/competition.

3. Leagues

In this section of the app, you can select for specific leagues or competitions, as well as for specific countries or continents if you want to look for all leagues in a given place. This way, you can not only filter for the competitions or leagues in the country or continent you’re interested in, but you can also look at the standings in leagues, as well as a breakdown for the Overall, Home, Away, and Form standings.

The Forebet Website

On our site you can find everything that’s available on the app, but also for any other major sport, not just for football. This includes basketball, tennis, hockey, American football, MMA, baseball, rugby, volleyball, handball, cricket, AFL, and Esoccer.

You can find the section for each sport in the website’s header. For each of these sports, Forebet offers data for almost every league or competition around the world, league standings, match history, H2H scores, in addition to our match predictions and advice.

The home page is dedicated to football, as it is the most popular sport in the world. As in the app, the home page lists all featured matches for today, tomorrow and yesterday, followed by our featured match previews.

On the left, there is a list of sections for all of Forebet’s predictions for today, tomorrow, the upcoming weekend, for our Top predictions, as well as for our Trends and Top Trends section, where you can find trends in specific matches and teams the Forebet’s algorithm has picked up over time, such as average goals scored/conceded, win or lose streaks, home/away records, differences in domestic/international performances, and so on.

On the right side of the header, you can also find our Search bar and Language change option (including English (EN), Deutsch (DE), Español (ES), Italiano (IT), Français (FR), Русский (RU), Ελληνικά (GR), Български (BG), Român (RO), Polski (PL), Português (PT), and Português (Brasil).

In the More menu, you can see sections and lists for Injured players, Team comparisons, full list of Match Previews, a list of all our Articles, Forebet’s FAQ, and more.

How to utilize our predictions and other data?

Now that we know where everything is, let’s go over how best to use it. Arguably the most important, yet misunderstood part of Forebet’s site and app is our match predictions.

Forebet is NOT a betting site, nor is it a site that offers “sure bets.”The Internet is full of scam sites and pages that claim to offer “sure bets,” often even asking for payments in exchange for those predictions.

However, at Forebet we realize that there is no such thing as a “sure bet” and we neither ask for money nor pretend to see the future. Instead, our match predictions and advice are there to give you a basis for what the probabilities are for each match, based on past performances, H2H, recent form, and other statistical indicators.

What’s more, ALL of Forebet’s predictions - from our match outcomes and correct scores to half time/full time, under/overs, and others - are done entirely by Forebet’s analytical algorithm. Our team works to manage the flow of data, so that the algorithm has as much info as possible to work with, but we never interfere with or tweak the final predictions ourselves.

Why is that important to note? Because the fact that Forebet’s match predictions and recommendations are generated by an algorithm’s predictive analysis means two key things:

1. Our match predictions take all available data into consideration, not just the two or three main factors people usually pay attention to. Head-to-heads, current form, goal scored/conceded trends, home/away forms, seasonal trends, key injured/suspended players, and more.

Based on all of that, Forebet gives you percentages for each outcome (1, X or 2) and not just a single “most likely” outcome. This is key - if a match has 43% for a 1 and 36% for a draw (and 21% for a 2), that doesn’t just mean “Forebet’s prediction is for a 1.” In such an example, a 1 and an X are both incredibly likely outcomes, one just a little more so than the other. And this is where the second point comes in.

2. Forebet’s predictions don’t include any added human insight. The reason we don’t tweak the algorithm’s predictions after they are generated but share them with you as they are is precisely so that you can add your own personal insight and opinion onto them.

Forebet’s predictions are best used as what they are - an algorithm-generated prediction based on the available data, but NOT on any additional insight only a human would be able to provide.

For example, did a struggling team just change their manager? Some teams are known to benefit from a “new manager bump in form,” while others often struggle even more under a new coach. In either case, however, predicting which of the two will be the case is something an algorithm cannot do - that’s up to people. The algorithm’s predictions are there just to provided a data-driven basis on top of which Forebet’s users can add their own insight to form their own predictions.

What additional information and statistics does Forebet offer and where can you find them?

Now that we know what Forebet’s algorithmic predictions represent and how to use them, the next step is to find all relevant information for a given match, so that you can make the most informed decision possible with your prediction. That’s why Forebet strives to offer as much information for each match, team, league, and sport as possible.

The first place to look for additional insight is below the prediction itself. For every match, Forebet offers not just a prognosis but an abundance of additional info you can access by just scrolling down. There are match intros, head-to-heads, recent matches for both teams, lists of injured and suspended players, league standings for both teams, and additional statistics on scored/conceded goals, shots on and off target, recent under/overs, goals by time period, attack statistics, and more. There are also notable trends the algorithm has picked up on underneath all those stats, typically related to unbeaten/winless runs, goals scored/conceded averages, and more.

Another useful tool to use is the match previews Forebet offers for matches in most major leagues and competitions. If a preview is available, you can access it by clicking on the Preview button in the Score column of the match, but there is also a second button at the top of the prediction page as well.

Each preview offers a synthesis of all the match data and statistics, a mention of injured/suspended players, a look at the form and main trends for each team, the expected probable lineups for both teams, and the prediction itself.

Of course, by going into either team’s past matches you can also look at the data and stats for them and the squads each team used for those games. From the match prediction page you can also click on the league or competition the game is for, which will lead you to that league/competition’s page. There, you can look at the overall league standings, results and statistics for this and previous seasons, and more.

Using all this information on top of the basis provided by the predictions of Forebet’s algorithm is the best way to make your predictions as accurate as possible.
