Sports betting revenues hitting high during FIFA World Cup
The World Cup football every four years is one of the most popular sporting events not only for spectators but also for fans of sports betting. Bookmakers all over the world and online take bets from all over the world. This year's FIFA World Cup was no different.
It is estimated that $ 2 billion will be wagered from sports betting with countries such as England, Italy among the leaders.
Bookmaking agencies know that this is their time to attract many new customers, and offer a large selection of betting odds. Creative sports books offer a large selection of opportunities available to football fans.
You can choose to bet while playing the game for example, it is called live betting, it gives you a slight advantage by letting you watch the game and based on what you see, you make your choice. This is a good way to give yourself time to research whether the team you want to bet on is in good shape or not.
Of course, one of the most popular bets is to choose the winner of the World Cup. This year, the big favorite Brazil is still alive, and has been playing great football so far. It is impossible to say that sports betting has put a lot of money on them, with about 33% of betting choosing Brazil as the team to win everything.
If you think you can choose the right result not only for the game but also for rest, then you should choose the betting option for half / full time double result, although there is much more to choose from. go this route, the rewards are much higher too. If we take the example of team A playing team B, here is how some of the chances are displayed.
Halftime - Full time odds
Victory - Victory + 350 - Team A leads in the middle, and wins the game at the end
Victory - Draw +850 - Team A leads in the middle, but the game results in a draw in the end
A win - B win +3500 - team A leads in the middle, but team B wins the match in the end
Draw - A wins +500 - after a half time draw Team A wins the game
Draw - B wins + 380 - After a standstill, Team B wins the game
The last two are a good choice if you are betting on a team that is a big favorite, but by betting the winnings only after a break, they significantly increase the return on your bet.
Take, for example, the game of France Togo last week, when the chance of France winning the game was - 500 (that is, for every $ 500 you bet, you win $ 100), but if you place your bet on the whole half-time event and you chose the mid / France draw for the game, your odds were at best +220 (you pay $ 220 for every $ 100 you bet)
As we get closer to the end of this event, the games will get closer and closer, which means the teams will focus on defense for something else, this will help spread betting, which can be deployed on the difference in goals between the two teams. For instance
England -1.5 + 125 - here England must win at least 2 goals to win your bet
Ecuador + 1.5 - 120 - win here If Ecuador wins, the game is tied, or they lose by 1
The last match at this year's World Cup is on July 9, when the two best teams will face each other in the final in Berlin.
