What is in the World Cup preview archive?
Every World Cup game preview the Wise Guy Desk published, kept exactly as it read before the game: the matchup read, the odds snapshot with the best price we found across the US sportsbooks we track, injuries and form, and the Desk's free lean when there was one. After the game each page is marked as ended, with the verified final score where we have it. Nothing is rewritten after the result.
How should I use old World Cup previews?
Use them to study how a market moved and why. Compare the price a preview quoted with where the line closed: beating the closing number consistently is one of the best signs of a sharp bettor (see closing line value). Desk previews are free analysis, not official plays; Ross's documented plays are graded win or loss on the documented record and the graded picks ledger.
