Football Betting Odds Explained

When you look at a football match that you wish to bet on, you may find it ♣ slightly overwhelming due to the vast number of different betting markets that are on offer. However, it doesn’t actually take ♣ very long to get to grips with the different types of markets and their associated odds, and once you have ♣ done so, the betting possibilities are almost limitless.

Football Betting Markets

Whether you are betting on the Premier League, the FA Cup, ♣ the World Cup, the Champions League, La Lia, or anything other match or tournament, there are broadly speaking two types ♣ of betting markets. There are Game Odds, which is where you find all the markets relating to an individual match, ♣ and Outrights, which is where you find the markets that deal with the overall results of a league or tournament, ♣ such as who will win, be relegated/promoted, reach the final, and so on.

The bulk of the markets are listed under ♣ Game Odds. The most straightforward market is the 1X2 Full Time; this is simply a bet on a team to ♣ win or the match to end in a draw. Another very simple market is the Total Goals; this allows you ♣ to bet on there being more or less than a certain number of goals in a match. In order to ♣ enjoy additional competitive betting opportunities, many people turn to the Asian Handicap markets. Depending on the strength of each team, ♣ a handicap is issued for the game to make the odds for each side more similar. These bets can take ♣ a little getting used to, but they are very much worth investing some time in.
