About GoonersGuide.com

GoonersGuide has been publishing sports betting previews and predictions since 2000. What began as a small personal project has grown into one of the longest-running independent betting analysis sites online, covering football, tennis, cricket, NBA, NFL, and US and European leagues.

Our approach has always been based on experience, transparency, and straightforward betting insight. No AI-generated filler. No content mills. Just real analysts writing real previews based on form, news, and long-term betting experience.
