Right then, let’s have a butchers at the Altrincham versus Woking game. The final whistle blew with a 1-3 scoreline in favour of Woking.

Looking at the 1X2 market, the bookies had Altrincham as favourites at 19/20, with Woking a decent shout at 12/5. However, the TopB1ns Edge was bang on the money here, tipping Woking for the win – a solid result for the model, showing it’s got some serious smarts early doors.

For Both Teams To Score, the odds were stacked with ‘Yes’ at 7/10. But, guess what? TopB1ns Edge went against the grain and predicted ‘No’. Well, it was a bit of a nail-biter, but it paid off! Woking bagged three, but Altrincham only managed one, so the ‘No’ prediction landed. Another win for the Edge!

Now, the Over/Under markets. TopB1ns Edge called Over 0.5 and Over 1.5, which both landed comfortably. Where it got interesting was Over 2.5 and Over 3.5. The bookies fancied plenty of goals, but TopB1ns Edge was predicting Under. Turns out, it was spot on for both – only three goals were scored in total, keeping it nicely Under the 2.5 and 3.5 lines. The Over 4.5, 5.5, and 6.5 predictions were all correctly called as Under by TopB1ns Edge, showing a keen eye for where the goals weren’t going to be.

Overall, a cracking performance from the TopB1ns Edge. It nailed the outright winner and provided some sharp calls on the goal markets that went against the general consensus. Just a few teething issues to iron out, but this model’s looking like a real contender. Cheers!
