Double Chance

A bet on a specific event or occurrence within a game that may not directly relate to the final outcome. Examples include first player to score, total passing yards by a quarterback, or number of corners in a football match. Prop bets can be player-based or game-based and are increasingly popular.

A handicap bet using whole numbers (e.g., -1, -2, +1) where three outcomes are possible: home win, draw, or away win with the handicap applied. Unlike Asian Handicap, draws are possible, meaning you can lose even with a one-goal margin. For example, Team A with a -1 handicap must win by 2+ goals.

A bet on whether the total combined score, goals, or points in a match will be above (over) or below (under) a line set by the bookmaker. For example, if the total is set at 2.5 goals in a football match, 'Over' wins if there are 3 or more goals, and 'Under' wins if there are 2 or fewer.

A bet on the overall winner of a tournament, league, or competition, rather than a single match result. For example, betting on which team will win the Premier League. Similar to futures but more commonly used in European betting markets. Outright bets usually have many possible outcomes.

A bet where the bookmaker assigns a points advantage or disadvantage to level the playing field between two teams. The favorite must win by more than the spread (e.g., -6.5 points) for a bet on them to win. The underdog can lose by less than the spread or win outright. Common in American football and basketball.

A single bet that links two or more individual wagers together, requiring all selections to win for the bet to pay out. Also known as an accumulator (acca) in the UK or a multi in Australia. The combined odds are the product of each individual selection's odds, creating high potential returns but lower overall probability.
