Football Betting Odds

When placing football bets, there are several types of football betting odds which you may come across. These are:

Fractional odds

Fractional football betting odds are those which are most often used by bookmakers in the UK. These odds are based on a unit of stake. So you can work out your winnings easily for example, if you place a bet at a fractional odd of 10/1, and you bet £1, you will win back £10 plus your one pound stake. It really is that simple.

Decimal Odds

Decimal football betting odds are not as commonly used by bookmakers as fractional odds but they are still widespread enough that you will probably encounter them. This format is very easy to understand too. Decimal odds will tell you exactly how much you will make from your stake to the nearest two decimal points making them very accurate odds indeed.

American Odds

If you are betting online then you may come across American football, the odds for this sport are sometimes referred to as money lines. These are based on a 100 stake and allow you to work out a positive or negative result. You can easily work out how much you will make on a 100 pound stake if you win, or you can work out how much you will need to stake in order to win 100.
