What about Mahrez ????
I accidentally left him out. I will add him right now.
How do you get these percentages? I understand how the calculator works but where do you get the odds? Surely you need the odds for Salah scoring and Salah not scoring? I use oddschecker and can only ever find the former.
Yes. I use bookies odds from a bookmaker that has both odds available: player scoring and player not scoring – so I can easily use the calculator for that. If you use oddschecker and have only one odds available, you can convert it to implied probability like this: 1/decimal odds or 1/(1+fractional odds). Oddschecker has currently odds for Salah scoring 4/9, which is 1.44 in decimal odds. So you will get an implied probability of 1/1.44=0.69 = 69 %. However you have a margin here as well, so the number is very high. The margin for goalscoring odds use to be around 5-10%, so you can reduce the result by that percentage to get a better approximation of real probability. Let’s assume that the margin is 8 % (my bookies use approximately 8 % margin for goalscoring odds), so your approximation for real probability could be (1-0.08)*0.69=0.63=63 %
Okay thankyou very much. Would you mind telling me what bookmaker you use? Or is that a secret
what bookmaker do you use?
Is Gakpo not listed favourably?
Lukaku?
Updated
King?
No Son? He didnt even make the list…
No, he did not. It was around 27 %. Bookies really got this one wrong I think.

Carlton Morris?
