What if the outcomes will change due to key players testing positive and weaker ones playing? Wouldn't it twist the games a lot, making them less predictable and less satisfying?

That's the problem of some teams in sports. They are too focused on stronger players making them more strong than before, but that's contradicting a team sport goal. They need to make everyone stronger and focus more to the players who needs attention to be train more and more to be equal to those stronger players on a certain team to avoid being a weaker team just because stronger players couldn't play.

Do you think it's a big factor to take into account given the current situation?

Yes it is. I think what concerns here the most is the health of both team players. When some of their players tested positive in COVID-19, that's already a sign to postpone the game to assure that COVID-19 will never spread anymore on the team, because it could be asymptomatic and being too confident that the rest of the players didn't get it could bring chaos in the end.

Campaign Management?"Hhampuz" is the Man
We can't take it from what is happening mate because this pandemic really affects everything in Life and not only in gambling world.

Players are being infected or afraid being one so they tend to go for quarantine and the best players sometimes are the one who are missing the game.

But this not talks generally because scores in other sportsbetting does not affected in this case like Boxing .

The pandemic surely has a huge effect on the whole sports industry. You have mentioned most of the key points, home-court advantage plays a huge role when playing, audiences have a huge impact on players. Most athletes are hesitant to go back to playing due to the risk of getting infected even with careful screening the risk is still present. The fear of corona hits the sports industry real hard. Some athletes gamble on playing on leagues since they also have to earn money.
I guess the Homecourt advantage is now taking place again as the players are getting use to none fans shouting for them and now getting back their senses .

The good thing that their managements have come up with a strategy which they can still play and continue whichever league or sports they are playing.
The consideration and resolution that they have for these players and their organizations made us, the fans really happy.
And the team needs to do it because they also needs to be paid and if the game wont progress then there should be a chance that the management will give them up so things must go to proper place again.
But yeah fans like us will be very happy now that action is back though we wanted to go in real watching and not just Via Online that sometimes making me Bore as i use to watch my Fav Team in live gaming.

I suppose we do see this sort of thing already to a lesser extent with flu and other viruses sweeping through a team, and players perhaps missing a game or at least playing at reduced capacity. The difference with CV19 of course is that the effect is much more dramatic, with players being forced to miss matches entirely for a couple of weeks.

The problem here is not with the game, players might already acquire the virus outside of the game which results in massive postpone of major games. In order to avoid these from happening, sports associations should always provide the necessary caution for the players to prepare and double their sanitation.

That is a big problem that every player should face because we don't know what the players do outside of the games. They can be anywhere they want, but we don't know if they are still following the health protocols or don't follow the protocols. When many players are infected with the Covid-19, that can lead to the postpone of major games because they will be reduced, even if they used backup players.

But we hope that the players can take care of their health, so there are not many postpone games that will happen while we are all waiting for the vaccine. The sports association needs to watch and be ready for any situations, but hopefully, all things will be okay.

Indeed. The management of each sports events make it possible to continue even the pandemic still exist, trying to make the sports still alive and surviving, even they'll going to proceed with the bubble types  set ups. Those promoters are doing the extra mile providing entertainment even  the covid crisis is strongly hitting out.
We all knew that aside from the potential incomes, the management needs to work it out for the fans to encourage them to continue enjoying their favorite sports, while for sure it excite the gamblers after seeing the availabilities of their favorite sport bookies, though inside the bubble there's a lots of unexpected outcomes it really affects the games, players are focus with the games without any interruptions from the fans, from this the eagerness of so called underdogs are really rising and surprising the fans.
They have tried it and we're all satisfied.
As a fan, I really recognize and appreciate those efforts that they've made. Although we know that it's part of their business and as a fan, we really are the ones that they're sending those entertainments and actions in sports that they're focused.

It's more obvious to people betting, because rather than the name being on the team sheet but the player carrying a bit of a virus, they are simply not on the team sheet at all, and the fact is announced beforehand... whereas with flu or a cold, perhaps nothing is announced.

Perhaps, there's still a lot of poor management from various teams. If this keeps on happening, we should really need to have a pause in sports betting, stay at home, and play other alternative casino games online. Though we have the option to support Esports, in that case, there's no way people could transmit the virus as players are playing on their respective homes.

if you are aware that some players or an entire teams is suffering from this situation is really easy take an advantage even if the odds are small (@1.10). Until the distribution of a vaccine or any other therapeutic agent we will see more and more of these events.

Ofcourse. I don't think "taking advantage of the situation" is the most appropriate words to use. The important thing is to bet/predict the team that will win based on your analysis. What matters is to be able to predict right based on available factors.

You don't have to guess. They are all professionals.
They wouldn't get in to the league if they are not professionals. They are professional athletes, basketball players and been through a lot before being selected.
Agree, they have been through a lot of trials and experience before being a professional player in a popular league. A professional player or an athlete player will do everything on their ability to win and experience and sports battle. Pandemic isn't a hindrance to a player, and besides protocols are implemented to avoid cases of COVID-19.

They already planned all of the possible situations they might encounter during the tournament and we should be happy that they still continue the league. Also, organizers really wanted to continue this event since there's a lot of profit on this, and the gambling industry also benefits from this sports event.

Yes, online tournaments have a lot of problems as I was watching some Chinese dota2 tournament and there were like 8 pauses in a single map because players were being disconnected because of poor internet speed which also affects their overall gameplay as we know dota2 and other multiplayer real time strategy games can be greatly influenced by a few milliseconds difference also known as ms in most games.

LAN tournaments never had such problems because a proper server was setup for the game and there were no internet issues and both the teams had the same speed as well which means the team winning won't be because of the internet speed difference which is happening in online tournaments.
Internet connection is a big problem now since many started to use Internet every seconds now during these Pandemic new normal since many are into online activities now might be for online schooling, Work from home jobs, online businesses and etc.that will affects also the online gambling and betting especially those live ones. Dota2 and Mobile Legends Tournament can have Internet problem and issue if Internet provider been having a connection problem due to bulk users and these games or any live casino or betting games is really in need to find a stable Internet provider to solve these issues.

It's true that internet connection problems are a big problem in today's situation, The pandemic has forced many people to do most of
their activities at home. And one way of connecting to the outside world from home requires the internet. So it is mandatory to use
a stable internet provider so that internet connection problems do not occur.

Especially for me who often watch streaming esports tournaments and football matches, I need a good internet connection, so that it does
not disconnect because of poor internet connection. Fortunately in my area there are many good internet provider choices, so I don't have
internet connection problems. And can do sports betting without any internet connection problems, then can watch streaming sports matches
smoothly.

If you know the situation before hand then it is more than helpful while placing a bet but they will not usually leak these kind of things to the media so that the opposition would make a game plan around it, even in the recent match in a normal circumstance i would never think about Cádiz CF defeating Real Madrid and this is just an example as we witnessed many upsets already this year playing in a bubble.

Because of the COVID19 pandemic there is some rules and regulations have imposed over this sector and obviously it make big changes. Few months back we have complete isolated, that cause immediately stopped most major games that's why sports betting industry has severely affected but right now sports is gradually returning once more, and that implies sports betting is returning as well.

They are back but we can't say that they are back the same as the past. We have rules right now and they need to follow them for the sports to continue. It is a big help to people as most of us are so bored in our houses with this pandemic. In terms of sports betting, I guess we could say that it blows up since the games that they could bet right now are limited.

In sports games, everything can be at betting in all events, but it is true that we can do that at home, we cannot see firsthand this pandemic, we still have to stay at home and of course this is very boring for us only on sports weekends that are played while the other games other.
We can not do anything before the pandemic disappears, therefore we must be prepared to face and work together so as not to infect more, our homes are safe enough.

Yes the case in pandemic might change the score and affect the game play of the team. Just like your example with the only goal keeper left which could really affect the game since he would likely forced to play throughout the game and without any rest this might change his performance and so would affect the score and will affect the sports betting.

But most of the athletes are fairly young, and most of the corona Infections among young very healthy people is almost always a mild illness. I think the chances for a top athlete to die of corona is very very small. After all they will get the best doctors and medical attention from their teams.
sorry but is there update for young athletes without serious internal problem died in corona?because it seems that there are no news i have watching regarding this.

So a top player if really infected with corona will maybe miss out on one or two weeks of games. Sure if you bet right on these games it's bad, but in terms of the hole season it shouldn't really affect the performance if the team that much. The top teams will likely finish the season among the first.
i don't think gambler in bright mind will bet in a team without their star players right?unless the other side is experiencing the same issue because of pandemic.

On E-sports it's still business as usual they can still go with or without the crowd in fact they have all time in the world because of the quarantine and lock down and the limitation of people going out.
It's not all business on esports they're also affected now that most of the tournaments are played online and that means the teams are only playing within their region. Currently the biggest lan tournament this year which is Worlds dropped two teams that qualified from their region since they're not allowed to go out of their country. With lan tournaments being rare some teams were forced to release their players.

I really agree if it is said that the COVID19 pandemic has an effect on match scores and also sports betting. Because some home
matches now make no difference to away matches, this is because there is no live audience. Then many players were infected with
the corona virus, making several teams lose their star players. This ultimately gave many surprises to the results of the match,
many strong teams were defeated by weak teams in pandemic situations like now. So it's no wonder that many bettors experience losses.

Guess the bettors should have factored the losses of star players to the disease. I think this is why it's very important to properly analyze a match before betting. This's something that will take alot of data, thinking and time to do.  Some probably don't spend time on this because they see it as luck-based or mere guessing thing
