Match Betting Guide

English Football Match Bets

Match betting is probably the simplest form of football betting and is offered by all bookmakers on every football match.

Match betting requires punters to predict the full time result of a football match by determining the outcome of the game selecting home win, away win or draw. Some online firms may refer to match betting as home/draw/away or 1/X/2. If you correctly predict the outcome you win.

The odds on match tend to vary depending on the two teams involved. The favourites in a match are often odds-on with the outsider of the two often available at a better price. Because the majority of match bets placed with UK Online Bookmakers tend to be on the favourites in a game, match betting lends itself to larger stakes punters or those football fans that just want an interest in a game and are happy to make a small profit.
