Over time

Worked out from the comps themselves, not by averaging the daily figures: every comp in the period is counted once, at its last check, and we take the middle one from each side. Comp-by-comp records started on 12 Nov 2026.

Today, hour by hour

Day by day

Launch check, 31 Oct 2026 (smaller sample, about 1,200 comps): 1 in 106 v 1 in 223, so 2.1x. Hourly checks started on 11 Nov 2026.

How we work it out

• Same time, same rules. Each check looks at comps closing in the next 24 hours: the ones on our list, and every UK comp we read from the sites we check. No sites are named and none are left out on purpose.
• We take the middle comp. We line each group up from best odds to worst and take the one in the middle (the median), so a few extreme comps can't skew it.
• Two ways of counting. "Projected" is our estimate of how many tickets will have sold at the close. "Worst case" is the odds if every ticket sells, which you can check on the comp's own page. We headline whichever is lower.
• Days, weeks and months are worked out from the comps themselves: every comp is counted once, at its last check, and we take the middle comp from each side. (11 Nov, the first day, used the middle of its hourly checks.)
• Nothing is hidden. Each day shows its lowest hourly result, and any hourly check that was missed or failed.
• Per ticket. Better odds means each ticket you buy has a better chance. It does not mean you will win.
