A Beginner’s Guide to Football Betting

Thousands of football matches and markets are available to bet on every week. Bookmakers will provide odds on the probability of a game’s outcome, including the result, the number of corners and cards, individual goal scorers, and more. There are many providers with special offers and competitive odds to try and give you the best value bet. Once the event’s outcome is confirmed, and your bet is a winner, you will be paid out your original stake plus the winnings from the odds.

Match Bet

The Match Bet is the purest form of football betting where you will pick the result of the football match. You can bet on the Home Team, Away Team, or Draw. Remember, the bet is placed for the 90- minute match. If the game ends in a draw after 90 minutes, then Draw is the winning bet. Match Bets do not count in extra -time or penalties.

Asian Handicap bet

An Asian Handicap bet is where your bet has a “handicap” to overcome. Each team is given either a + or a – on their score line. There are only two results on RB88, and if the game ends in a draw, the bettor gets back their stake. This is popular as the chance of a draw is likely so that bettors can win their stake back.

European Handicap bet

European Handicap is different from an Asian Handicap. For example, you may bet on one team to win but give the other side a one-goal advantage to increase the odds.

Accumulators

Accumulators are among the most popular forms of betting on football as you can win enormous payouts for small stakes. An accumulator is more than four selections, while two choices are two-fold, whereas, three collections are three-fold. When you bet on an accumulator, you are betting on the outcome of more than one event.
