A goal bet with over three times the profit

Goal betting is a great way to increase the excitement of a football game. English football, and especially premiership football, over the years has become more and more of an attacking game.

In this post LetsCompareBets will compare a goal fixed odds bet to a goal spread bet. Spread betting is a great way to boost returns over traditional fixed odds betting.

The good thing about football goal betting is that goals produced by football matches can be predicted. First lets look at what makes up a football bet.

The event. A football game. Any league is good, in the UK or Europe.

The bookmaker makes a prediction. Normally Under or Over 2.5 goals. In other words 2 and below goals, or, 3 or more goals.

The sports betting fan (that’s right you and me). People involved in the betting market.

As we have mentioned the bookmaker places a cut off and prices a bet with fixed odds. Like this,

10/11 – Under 2.5 goals
10/11 – Over 2.5 goals

Sports spread betting companies work in the same way; they invite the bettor to place an Under or Over bet. In stead of pricing the bet with fixed odds it is priced using a spread.

Spread your winnings….which markets?

Spread betting offers a high octane alternative to traditional fixed odds betting. A spread betting company turns some aspect of a football match into a number. The spread betting company will offer odds by providing a prediction of where they expect the outcome to lie.

The first goal betting market is a good market to illustrate how this works. The spread betting company predicts that they expect the first goal to be scored after 28 minutes. A spread bet can be placed higher or lower than the prediction.

Lets compare some stats for first goals by Everton and Birmingham city. Both teams have similar goal records. They are only separated by one place in the table.
