Step 1
One of the types of bets on football matches is a bet on the exact number of goals scored. You can place a bet on one match and one half. For the latter option, the bookmakers offer the so-called lines ("totals"), followed by values, one of which you have to choose.
Step 2
It is advisable to follow the changes in the odds and place bets on "total" before the start of the game. Also carefully study the previous games of the team. Even such subtleties as possible injuries to the goalkeeper and defenders, missing the previous match by one of the forwards can make a difference.
Step 3
If the game is aggressive by all indications, and both teams are satisfied only with the victory, your bet on the big version in the "total" will be more justified. Since the team usually plays better at home, pay attention to the fact that the game is going to be - away or home. Having lost in the previous game, the team will certainly strengthen their defensive tactics.
Step 4
Correct score bet is a bet on the outcome of a match, excluding penalties, and only during regular time. Sports analysts believe that, as a rule, the home team opens the score. To place bets on the exact score, you need to check if the names of the teams are located correctly. Since the interest on such a bet is very high, it will be a shame if you lose because of a banal inaccuracy. In other words, if you think that A will win in the game between teams A and B, then the bet should look like 3: 1, and not vice versa.
Step 5
In a bet on the first goal, it is required to guess the team that opened the score. Sometimes it is possible to bet on no goals or even on a specific player who will roll the ball into the opponent's goal. Here you need to carefully study the statistics and betting rules. Different bookmakers may have different rules.
Step 6
Often, experts advise to bet not on a proven player, but on a defender who has free kicks and dangerous corner kicks. The point is that the odds for a bet on the obviously leading player will be low, and a risky bet on a defender can be much more profitable if the outcome is favorable.
Step 7
The last goal bet assumes that you will guess the last player to score in the match. Some bookmakers, in cases where the player, on whom the bet was made, did not enter the field, return the bet in full. Statistics show that the overwhelming majority of goals are scored before the end of the match.
Step 8
There are also bets on yellow and red cards. Before placing your bets, carefully study the statistics of violations of the teams participating in the game. Some bookmakers accept bets on the number of free kicks and corner kicks, on the first red card and some other events that occur in the game.
