Most times we are caught in between placing our bets on our favourite teams to win and not there present form, this action according to analysis shows that it's one of the reasons some persons don't win a sport bet, no matter how hard they try, a team that's not in form or getting the results shouldn't be on your sports betting slip, because they might continue the poor run of form and hurt your ticket, a friend once adviced me never to put my favourite team on my ticket, unless they are in form, am a Manchester United fan but most times I bet against them as long as my ticket is concerned I don't have a favourite team.
It depends on every individual because a lot of people wouldn't get against their favorite team because they love them to an extreme level and can't do that, but some people would do it because they think practically and not emotionally. When you are driven by emotions and you know, you better not bet in games where your favorite team is involved and you know that your team isn't in good form and hasn't been performing very well lately.
In my opinion, we should keep emotions and emotional attachments aside if we are involved in sports betting because if you are doing it for money and profits, you will need to take some hard steps which would surely not be easy, and if you think you can't do that, sports betting might not be suitable for you.
