Football betting has become very accessible. You no longer have to go out and everything goes through your online account at your favourite sportsbook like SBOBET.
Below is a look at the most common types of wagers placed in football:
Handicap
The handicap betting determined based on the difference in form and quality of a football team. The results from the past can play a role, but also because, for example, a star player has been injured. In case there is a real underdog, a bet with a handicap can come.
This indicates that the underdog already has a lead of 1-0 or 2-0 and the sky-high favourite must eventually make up for this deficit. If the online bookmaker has a handicap of -1 and you bet on X (tie) on the favorite, the favorite must score 1 goal to end it in a tie.
1X2 Bet
The most famous football bet available when betting on football is the 1X2 bet. If you expect the home team to win, choose 1. If you think it will end in a draw, choose X. For the away team, you can bet on 2. Keep in mind that this is the regular playing time, namely 90 minutes.
Over/Under
Over/Under wager means placing money on the number of goals per game. In some cases it is possible to bet on the number of corners in a football match. With Over/Under bets you can indicate how much will be scored and by which team for higher payouts.
HT/FT
It is quite difficult to predict. You must bet on the results of the first and second half. There are many betting options available such as betting on the home team to be the winner in the first half and a draw as the final result. For this you bet on 1/X. Do you expect that the home team will be led in the first half but that the away team will eventually win the football match and have you filled in 1/2? Then you will be paid this bet.
Goals
You can also bet on different “goals” category. Again, there are several options and we will discuss the most important with you. There is a lot of betting on whether or not the teams will score. You can also bet that both teams score or that both teams do not score.
