Bet Type |
Details |
Moneyline 3-Way |
Predict the match winner or if the game will finish as a draw (tie). |
Futures Betting |
If you’re looking at events such as the FIFA World Cup, you can place a futures bet before and during the tournament to say who you think will be the outright winner. |
Totals |
If you think a game could be high or low scoring, you can place bets on the total goals scored in a game, selecting over or under a given value such as 2.5 goals. |
Correct Score |
A bet that returns higher odds than just predicting the moneyline, betting on what the exact score will be is more difficult and usually left to experienced bettors. |
Same Game Parlay |
Add multiple lines to your bets such as backing Liverpool to beat Manchester City in the Premier League with over 9 corners in the game and over 2.5 goals. Enhances the odds greatly. |

Are There any Tips for Betting on Soccer in New York?
If you want a good tip for betting on soccer, know that on their day, anyone can beat anyone. Every underdog has its day, so never think a game is over before it even begins. Look back at Leicester City in the Premier League in the 2015/16 season, who won the domestic title at odds of +500,000.
Another top tip is to check out individual player stats. You may see a bet for a player to make over 59.5 passes in a game and it may seem a lot, but you can find out their average passing stats. If that player makes an average number of passes in the region of 84 per game, then you know that you have a good chance of your bet coming in.
