Betting and football go hand in hand and there’s a whole plethora of bets that you can place on the beautiful game. There’s also a lot of free bets up for grabs as well, dished out by bookies to lure in new customers and used to reward punter loyalty. On footballbets.tips we cover both the different kinds of bets you can place on a match as well as where you can find these magical free bets.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The term “free bet” is a bit of a misnomer as they’re not completely free. To get your hands on them you’ll almost always need to first place a wager of your own. Occasionally you do see offers pop up on big matches (such as a \u00a35 free bet for all customers) but more often than not you’ll need to stump up a bit of cash before you’ll get any kind of bonus.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Generally speaking football bets fall into a few distinct categories. You do get the odd quirky outlier or hybrid variation but the following should cover the majority of wagers that you’re likely to come across.<\/p>\n
Essentially here you’re betting on the outcome of a match. Whilst it seems like a very simple task, the bookies have found plenty of ways to spice up your bets if you find the match odds a little too vanilla.<\/p>\n
In addition to the above there are also a few slight tweaks such as Half Time Betting<\/strong> (where you are only betting on the result at half time, not full time), Win Both Halves<\/strong> (effectively the same as a HT\/FT bet where you’ve picked the same team) and various combination bets that incorporate a match odds element alongside something to do with the final score – such as Match Odds + Both Teams to Score<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Where your bet lives or dies based on the score. This could be as simple as wagering on what each team will have scored by the end of the match, or you could try to predict how many goals there are in total.<\/p>\n As with the match odds bets there are also various sub bets with minor differences, such as Half Time Total Goals<\/strong>, Team Total Goals<\/strong> and First Team to Score<\/strong>. All of which operate exactly how they sound.<\/p>\n For larger odds, many punters like to bet on the players rather than the team or the scoreline. An important note to make about these bets is that they only stand if your player actually plays in the match, otherwise they’re made void and your bet returned.<\/p>\n Want to combine bets from the same match in an acca? Traditional accumulators are out of the picture thanks to a pesky little clause called “Related Contingencies”, after all if you’re betting on Liverpool to score 2-1 against Man United you can’t also pop it in an acca alongside Liverpool to win.<\/p>\n In order to satisfy punters desire to combine their bets the bookies invented a type of multiple bet that combines together wagers from the same match. The odds are a little difficult to calculate but they allow you to combine the result, goalscorer and things like corners and cards. Each bookie has their own name and style so you might want to test a few out to see what floats your boat the most.<\/p>\n Some bookies also offer completely custom bets which you can get odds for by tweeting to a special twitter hashtag. If accepted they’ll add it to their site for you (and anyone else that wants) to have a bet on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Football Bets Betting and football go hand in hand and there’s a whole plethora of bets that you can place on the beautiful game.
