Once you’ve mastered the basics, it’s time to explore some of the most popular betting markets: Total Goals, Handicap, and First Half bets. These markets give you more ways to enjoy the action and find value in a match.
Total Goals (Over/Under)
With this market, you’re predicting whether the total number of goals scored in the match will be over or under a specific value.
Example:
Bet: Over 2.5 Goals
Result: Match ends 2–1 (3 total goals)
✅ You win!
Tip: This market is ideal if you expect goals but aren’t sure which team will win.
Handicap Markets (European Handicap)
Handicap betting gives one team a virtual head start or disadvantage to balance the odds.
Example:
Bet: Real Madrid -1
Result: Real Madrid wins 3–1
✅ After subtracting 1 goal, it’s still 2–1 – you win!
This is great when you expect a strong team to win by more than one goal and want higher odds.
First Half Markets
Want to bet only on the first 45 minutes? First Half markets let you predict outcomes for just the first half.
Example:
Bet: First Half – Barcelona to win
Result: 1–0 at halftime
✅ You win!
Asian Handicap
Asian Handicap markets remove the possibility of a draw and can split your stake across two handicaps.
Examples: -0.5, +1.25, -1.75
Can result in a half win, half loss, or half refund.
This market is popular among more experienced bettors who want more flexibility.
Both Teams to Score (BTTS)
One of the most popular markets:
BTTS – Yes: Win if both teams score.
BTTS – No: Win if at least one team fails to score.
✅ Works well when combined with Over/Under or 1X2 bets in combo bets.
Where to Find These Markets
Classic View: Markets are shown as tabs above the match odds.
Modern View: Markets appear in scrollable lists or dropdown menus.
If you can’t see all options, look for “All Markets” or filter by Main, Goals, or Half categories.
Betting Tip
Start with simple markets and try combinations as you gain experience. Whether you’re betting on early goals or backing high-scoring matches, these markets give you plenty of ways to play smarter.
