What is Expected Value in Sports Betting?

In sports betting, Expected Value (EV) is a measurement of how much profit or loss you can expect to win or lose per bet if you placed the same bet an infinite number of times. Every bet has an EV, with the EV for each bet being Positive (+EV), Negative (-EV), or zero.

Poisitive Expected Value (+EV)

Positive Expected Value indicates that the odds that are being offered on a bet are higher than the probability of the bet winning. This gives the bettor an advantage over the sportsbook, with +EV bets being profitable in the long run.

Negative Expected Value (-EV)

Negative Expected Value indicates that the odds that are being offered on a bet are lower than the probability of the bet winning - usually because the sportsbook takes a vig (a built-in commission or fee that a sportsbook charges to take your bet). This gives the sportsbook an advantage over the bettors, with -EV bets losing you money in the long run.

Zero Expected Value (0 EV)

Zero Expected Value indicates that the odds reflect the true probability of the outcome, meaning you will break even in the long run.
