Online sports betting has transformed the routine of millions of fans around the world. After all, the opportunity to test your knowledge, increase your fun and continue to benefit is an attraction for sports enthusiasts. And soccer betting, of course, is the great attraction of this universe.
How could it be otherwise, the most popular sport on the planet is also the one that most attracts betting fans. Getting it right in football is an emotion that fans from dozens of countries enjoy every day, in the most diverse championships.
European football tends to concentrate most of the bets on this sport, but this is only the beginning. Spanish fans can place their chips in their own teams, both in state and regional competitions and in national and continental tournaments. Not to mention the tournaments between national teams, such as the World Cup, the Copa América and the European Championship.
There are many options, and this applies to both choosing the championship of your choice and deciding how to bet on TonyBet. We have prepared a guide for you to answer your questions and make your guesses, explaining everything you need to know about soccer betting.
Learning to bet on soccer
Anyone who hasn’t yet started exploring all the possibilities sportsbooks have to offer may have a hard time understanding how it all works. None of that: betting sites offer the most varied alternatives to guess, serving both beginners and more experienced players.
If you are interested in knowing how to bet on soccer, we recommend you start with the basics, that is, discover the different betting possibilities in the most exciting sport of all.
There are several ways to place a bet on soccer, the most popular type of bet is known as the money line. In it, you have to guess who will win the match (or if it will end in a draw). Each possible outcome offers a different quote and you profit based on that calculation. You don’t have to worry about the goal margin or the final score: what matters is who won the game, that’s all.
This is just the beginning. If you want to make more elaborate and complex guesses, there is no shortage of alternatives. Do you want to put your chips in the final result of a competition? Then just explore the futures betting markets. Do you think you can predict more specific scenarios in a match? Then you know options such as handicap, double chance, draw, cancel the bet… There are endless possibilities for you to discover them, always with great chances of profit.
What are soccer odds?
Odds are the odds for each team or athlete in a sports bet. They represent the probabilities of each possible outcome in a match or competition.
Each possible outcome (home win, draw, away win, etc.) has its odds published by the bookmaker. Based on this number, the bettor can choose which is the best hit option for each match. It’s all about risk and return: the more unlikely the outcome, the higher your profits.
The easiest way to understand what probabilities are and how they work is to observe them in practice. Enter a betting site and see the table of a round of the Brasileirão. You will notice that favorites have lower odds and underdogs, or underdogs, have higher odds. If you choose the favourite, the chance of winning is high, but the payout is lower. If you go for the underdog, the chance of winning is small, but the gain is higher. Simple like that.
You may be wondering: who determines these odds? Well, bookmakers have people hired specifically for that. Based on the most diverse factors –field command, historical background, campaign in the competition, among others–, they calculate the probabilities and establish the quotas for each team in each confrontation.
Learning to choose the most advantageous odds is the first big challenge for anyone who wants to become a successful bettor. You can be more conservative and place your chips only on fired favourites. In this case, however, your profit margin will always be very small.
The big trick is to identify the most attractive dates in less predictable confrontations. If you manage to get the result of the match right, your profit margin will be much higher. Not to mention the zebras. If you have the nerve to invest in a surprise, you could end up multiplying your investment. It all depends on how much you are willing to risk and how much you have developed your insight and knowledge.
