Recent results — what happened next to the market's view before kick-off

Pinnacle closing price with the margin removed: the market's chance of the result that happened. A low number means the result was a surprise, not that anyone could have known. A dash means we did not price that match, or it went to extra time.

How to read this: we replay the entire remaining season thousands of times using team strength ratings built from historical results. These are probabilities, not predictions — our own research shows no model beats the betting market on a single match. Over a full season, however, the distribution of outcomes is informative. Updated weekly as real results come in.

Football predictions, answered honestly

What are the best 2. Bundesliga predictions?

The sharpest public forecast for 2. Bundesliga is the betting market with the margin removed. We publish exactly that — the fair probability and fair odds for every 2. Bundesliga fixture — and flag only the matches a softer bookmaker is mispricing. No tipster consistently beats the closing line, and we do not pretend to.

Do you offer 2. Bundesliga betting tips?

We publish an audit, not tips. For each 2. Bundesliga match you get the fair price and an honest value check; predictions are logged before kick-off and settled publicly, wins and losses alike, on our track record.
