The bookies will be licking their lips - have you ever wondered why bookies publish form guides?

A team playing well will in theory win more often than one out of form, but their odds will reflect this, and possbily over-reflect this, as most money still goes on form teams and the odds get biased. Very difficult to make a long term profit backing teams at the top of results-based form guides IMO.
