Betfair Data Scientists

At Betfair, our Data Scientists are behind the sophisticated Ratings Models that provide data-driven predictions for various racing and sport. The Horse Ratings Model assesses each runner's chance of winning based on a range of factors, including past performance, race conditions, trainer and jockey statistics, and various other variables. It then converts these assessments into rated prices, allowing Betfair customers to compare the model's predicted odds with those available on the Exchange. This comparison helps identify value bets by highlighting discrepancies between the model's predicted prices and the market odds. Betfair also offers a Harness, Greyhound, NFL, NBA, AFL, BBL, EPL model and more. Our Data Scientists continually refine the model to ensure accurate and actionable insights, assisting punters in finding the best value and making informed betting decisions.
