Italian Football’s Dubious Draws In The Spotlight

31 Mar, 2011 / GamblingCompliance Ltd. / Graham Wood

The uncanny frequency with which end-of-season matches in Italian football end in tied outcomes has finally come under the spotlight, with one MP calling for suspect matches to be postponed pending further enquiries.

For many years bookmakers have had to tread warily when pricing up end-of-season games in Italy, as the result – a convenient draw – is frequently widely anticipated and the prediction usually correct.

The first such game that caught bookies napping, back in the early 90s when overseas companies first became involved in the Italian market, was a draw between league leaders Milan and bottom of the table Brescia.

Both teams were in need of a single point and while the majority of Italian punters knew in advance the outcome and cashed in, the mis-priced game cost early pioneers a fortune.

Since then mid-table teams with little to play for have handed each other easy results for years, ensuring oddsmakers have to take into account favours from seasons past in order to set the right odds.

With only a few weeks of this season left the draw flood has, as usual, started again and following complaints last weekend a number of matches are now set to disappear from bookmakers’ lists.

In the Serie B second division there are at least three matches with draws priced at odds of around 1.60 by the bolder firms, or simply missing from other companies’ odds lists.

Even the Serie A games Chievo vs Sampdoria and Genoa vs Cagliari have draws priced at around 1.35 and 1.70 where the games are still on offer.

While in the past even the authoritative sports daily Gazzetta dello Sport blithely ignored the lack of competitiveness of the countless 0-0 draws and awkward games where teams took turns to score to even the balance, the matter has now hit the headlines as the football authorities, Finance Police and even parliament have begun to deal with the matter.

Senator Franco Cardiello raised the issue of suspect games in the Italian parliament this week, linking the issue to money laundering and referring to the enquiry initiated by the Federcalcio football association into two specific matches, Chievo vs Sampdoria to be played on 3rd April, and other recent matches.

Recent games between Padova and Atalanta and Ravenna and Spezia in Serie B, and in the Lega Pro lower division involving Fondi and Neapolis, as well as two Benevento matches, have all attracted huge and disproportionate volumes of bets.

Bookmakers have reacted by removing suspect games once liabilities become too high, or by making the games “singles only” to avoid multiple bets combining too many draws at prohibitively high odds.

As sportsbetting in Italy has become more legitimate and mainstream, an unexpected side-effect has been the latest widespread scrutiny of what was once one of Italy’s most unique springtime sporting traditions.
