What is vig (vigorish) in sports betting?

Vig — short for vigorish, also called juice or overround — is the margin a sportsbook builds into its odds. It's the difference between the true probability of an outcome and what the odds imply. Lower vig means you keep more of your winnings on every bet. For example, a standard -110/-110 line has about 4.76% vig.

How often is this data updated?

We pull fresh odds from The Odds API three times per day — at 6:00 AM, 2:00 PM, and 10:00 PM UTC. Each snapshot captures the latest lines from every sportsbook that has posted odds. The timestamp at the top of the page shows the most recent refresh.

How is the vig grade calculated?

Each sportsbook is graded on a letter scale based on average vig: A+ (under 2%) is exceptional, A (2–3%) is excellent, B+ (3–4%) is above average, B (4–5%) is the industry standard, C (5–6%) is below average, and D (above 6%) indicates high-juice markets.

Why does lower vig matter for bettors?

Lower vig directly impacts your long-term returns. A bettor placing $1,000 per week at a book with 4% vig loses roughly $40/week to the house edge. At 2% vig, that drops to $20/week — a $1,040 difference over a year. For serious bettors, shopping for lower vig is one of the most reliable ways to improve profitability.

What sportsbooks do you track?

We track both regulated US sportsbooks (DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars) and offshore books (Bovada, BetOnline, MyBookie, BetUS, LowVig.ag, BetAnySports). Data comes from The Odds API, which aggregates real-time lines from licensed sources.

The FIFA Women's World Cup operates on a unique four-year cycle that differs dramatically from annual league competitions. The tournament itself typically occurs during the Northern Hemisphere summer months of July and August, with qualification campaigns running intermittently over the preceding three years. Sportsbooks begin posting initial championship futures in earnest approximately 18-24 months before the tournament, with the most liquid betting markets emerging 6-12 months prior as squad selections solidify and final qualifying spots are determined.

During the extended off-season periods between tournaments, bettors can capitalize on several specialized futures markets unique to international competition. Outright winner odds remain the primary focus, but books also offer group winner markets, top goalscorer props, and qualification specials for teams on the bubble. The unique nature of international soccer creates value opportunities around managerial appointments, with odds shifting significantly when powerhouse nations like the United States, Germany, or England announce coaching changes. Transfer activity in top domestic leagues also impacts tournament odds, as player movement to more competitive clubs often correlates with improved international form and visibility.

Vig patterns for Women's World Cup betting tend to be wider than men's international soccer due to lower overall handle, with books typically holding 8-12% margins on outright winners compared to 4-6% for Premier League matches. The sweet spot for value betting often emerges 3-6 months before the tournament when books have established comprehensive markets but before public attention drives odds movement. Historical patterns show the largest odds swings occur following major tournament performances in other competitions—particularly the Olympics or continental championships—as these events serve as form guides and can dramatically alter public perception of team strength heading into World Cup qualifying campaigns.

How We Calculate These Numbers

Data Source: All odds on this page come from The Odds API, which aggregates real-time lines from licensed US and offshore sportsbooks. We track moneyline, spread, and totals markets across every sport with active betting lines.
Update Frequency: We pull a fresh snapshot of every tracked market three times per day — at 6:00 AM, 2:00 PM, and 10:00 PM UTC. Each snapshot captures the latest lines from every sportsbook that has posted odds for a given event. The timestamp at the top of each page tells you exactly when the data was last refreshed.
Vig Calculation: Vig (short for vigorish, also called juice or overround) measures the margin a sportsbook builds into its odds. We calculate it by converting the odds on each side of a market to implied probabilities, summing those probabilities, and subtracting 100%. For example, a market priced at -110/-110 implies 52.38% on each side — a total of 104.76%, meaning a vig of 4.76%. Lower vig means better value for bettors because you keep more of your winnings.
Per-Market Breakdown: We compute vig separately for each market type: moneyline (h2h), point spreads, and totals (over/under). The "average vig" shown for each sportsbook is the mean across all market types weighted by the number of events sampled in each market.
Grading Scale: Every sportsbook receives a letter grade based on its average vig: A+ (under 2%) is exchange-level pricing. A (2–3%) is very competitive. B+ (3–4%) is above average. B (4–5%) is the industry standard — a -110/-110 line is 4.76%. C+ (5–6%) is slightly below average. C (6–7%) is below average. D (7–8%) is high vig. D− (8–10%) is very high vig. F (10%+) is predatory pricing. See the full Vig Index Methodology for formulas, worked examples, and known limitations.
Trend Tracking: We store daily snapshots for 30 days, allowing us to show 24-hour and 7-day vig trends. A downward trend (improving) means sportsbooks are tightening their lines — often in response to increased competition or higher betting volume as a season heats up.
