Soccer market guides
Soccer betting markets, explained for SA bettors
Pick the market before you pick the betting site. These guides explain the risk, how each bet is settled, and when a market is a bad fit.
Every guide in this set
- BTTS betting explained BTTS means both teams to score. Your bet wins if each team scores at least one goal in the time the bet covers.
- Over under 2.5 goals explained Over 2.5 wins if the match has 3 or more goals. Under 2.5 wins if the match has 0, 1 or 2 goals.
- Asian handicap explained An Asian handicap gives one team a goal start, or takes goals away, before the bet settles. On some lines the adjusted result is a tie, called a push, and your stake comes back.
- Soccer accumulator betting South Africa An accumulator puts several bets into one slip. Every leg has to win, unless the site rules or the promotion say otherwise.
- Draw no bet explained Draw no bet takes the draw out of play. If the match ends level, you usually get your stake back.
Want to bet on one match on its own?
A pool ticket and a bookmaker bet are different products. If what you want is a bet on one of these matches on its own, at a price you can see before you stake, that is a licensed South African bookmaker rather than a pool.
