      1.6 Significance of the study
      Focusing on sporting bets puts economic significance of league matches into perspective and allows for comparisons between teams within a certain league as well as across leagues. Furthermore, analysis of demand for sport bets can also increase the understanding of demand for sport contests in general. Even though there is extensive literature on drivers for attendance at sport events, some ambiguities remain, especially with respect to the impact of outcome uncertainty.
      The ambiguities with respect to demand for sporting contests and the role of uncertainty of outcome may be related to empirical issues, for example, censored data due to sellouts of stadiums, unavailable data such as TV or online stream audience, or problems with respect to the inclusion of (ticket) prices. Using data on betting demand reduces methodological issues as demand is not censored and exact numbers on demand and prices are available. Hence, results can deliver valuable information on determinants of demand for sport events in general.
