Sports predictions built on data, published in the open
SharpTips exists because most "tips" are opinions wearing a confident voice. We wanted a place where every pick comes with its reasons - and its result.
Why we built a sports prediction platform
SharpTips started from a simple frustration shared by people who love sport and follow the numbers: good information was scattered across a dozen sites, and most tipsters only ever showed their winners. Checking form, injuries, standings and odds for a single match could take an hour.
So we built the tool we wanted to use ourselves. It gathers that information for every match we cover, weighs it in a consistent way, and says plainly what it thinks is most likely - then records what actually happened, whether we were right or wrong.
The name comes from betting language: a "sharp" is someone who bets from disciplined analysis rather than instinct. That is the standard we hold our predictions to, and the habit we hope to help our members build.

What data we analyse for each match
Form & recent results

Head-to-head, table & season stats
Past meetings, league position and season-long numbers for both sides.
Injuries & line-ups
Who is missing, who is back, and the expected starting line-up.
Bookmaker odds
Market prices as the baseline - we look for concrete reasons to agree or disagree.
Press & team news
A check of current reporting: late injuries, rotation, managerial changes, motivation.

Historical data
Current-season numbers are read against previous seasons and past meetings, with recent matches weighing more than old ones. Our own history grows every day too: each settled pick feeds the public track record, so you can see how every market and confidence level has performed over time.
What we believe
Data over hype
Every prediction traces back to numbers and reporting we can point to, not to a feeling.
Transparency by default
The picks we get wrong stay just as visible as the ones we get right.
No false certainty
We never claim a guaranteed outcome. Sport is unpredictable; our job is to give you a better-informed view.
SharpTips is not a betting operator - we do not accept wagers and are not affiliated with any bookmaker. The service is for adults aged 18 and over. SharpTips is operated by VAX ADVISORS SRL; company details are set out in our Terms & Conditions.
