What does a -2.2% edge mean?

A negative edge of -2.2% means the price (+355) is worse than fair value (+365). You can still win, but the long-run math is against you.

Does a positive edge mean the bet is likely to win?

No. The market still implies about a 22.0% chance this hits at the offered odds. A +EV bet pays more than its true probability warrants — most +EV bets at long odds still lose individually.

How are fair odds calculated?

Sportsbook prices on the same market are de-vigged and averaged to estimate a true win probability. Using the available market price, we estimate 21.5%, which converts to fair odds of +365.

Why does this grade differ from the sportsbook's advertised lift?

Books quote lifts vs their own original line, which already includes margin. We compare the price to a vig-free consensus, so an advertised lift can still grade poorly if the underlying line was inflated.

Should I bet every bet that grades well?

Grading is a price-quality signal, not a guarantee. Even a B-grade bet can lose. Size within your bankroll, account for correlation, and don't chase results.

AI breakdown

Verdict: This is a solid parlay with some strong teams, and it looks like you've got a decent price on it!

Market context: the matchup your price is a touch under the calculated fair odds, it's not a significant difference, and multi-leg parlays naturally carry slightly varied pricing.
Status: the matchup no notable injury signal for any of the teams involved.
Social: the matchup data to gauge social sentiment on this parlay.
Risk: This is a 7-leg parlay, which means a lot of things need to go right for it to cash, contributing to multi-leg parlay variance.

Smart insight: The actual qualification probabilities for Brazil, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, France, USA, and Argentina will be the primary drivers of this bet's EV. Similar profile: This is a classic "all favorites" international tournament parlay for teams to advance, which usually offers entertainment value with a lower probability of hitting. Counter-case: The biggest challenge here is simply the sheer number of legs involved; a single upset in any of these matchups would mean the parlay doesn't hit. Live context: the matchup lineups near tip-off for any unexpected changes. Stake suggestion: the matchup stake.

How this bet was graded

Grade B · 35/100 · Better Off Passing

Multi-leg parlay for teams to qualify for the next round at +355 on FanDuel (7 legs): we couldn't match this slip to enough comparable market prices to compute a trustworthy consensus fair value, so no edge % is shown — anything we'd print would just echo the book's own vig. The grade leans on price lift vs the original (+0.0%), leg count, and variance. Treat it as directional.

Frequently asked questions

Why isn't an edge % shown?

We couldn't match this slip to enough comparable market prices to compute a trustworthy fair value. Rather than show a number derived from the offered price itself (which would just echo the book's vig), we leave the edge unstated. The grade still reflects price lift vs the original, variance, and confidence.

Does the grade still mean something?

Yes. B (35/100) is built from the price lift, leg count, variance, and any verified context signals — it's directional. Treat it as a sanity check, not a precise EV figure.

Should I bet every A-grade ticket?

Grading is a price-quality signal, not a prediction. Even an B-grade ticket can lose. Size within your bankroll, account for correlation between legs, and use Inside Angles above to spot factors the price hasn't absorbed yet.
