If the favorite team wins by a margin of 2 goals or more (e.g., 2-0, 3-1, 4-1, etc.), the player who bets on the favorite team will win the bet and receive a payout according to the betting odds. On the other hand, if someone bets on the underdog team, they will lose the bet and their stake.

If the favorite team wins by a margin of exactly 1 goal (e.g., 1-0, 2-1, 3-2, etc.), the bet is considered a draw, and the player will get their stake back from the bookmaker. It means neither the favorite nor the underdog wins, resulting in a push or a draw.

If the favorite team loses or draws the match against the underdog (e.g., 2-2, 2-3, 3-3, etc.), the player who bet on the favorite team will lose the bet and lose their entire initial stake. However, if someone bets on the underdog team, they will win the bet and receive a payout according to the corresponding betting odds.

Gather match information: Take the time to collect and analyze match information before placing your bets. The more information you have, the better your chances of making informed decisions. Consider factors such as team rankings, head-to-head history, recent form, goal-scoring performance, starting lineups, substitutes, outstanding players, coaching tactics, weather conditions, home or away advantage, etc.

Monitor and update betting odds: Regularly observe the fluctuation of odds before the match. This is an important strategy that experienced bettors apply to take advantage of potential opportunities. Bookmakers often adjust odds to trap players, so keeping a close eye on the odds and making timely changes can help you avoid falling into traps and losing money.

Bet smartly: Lastly, be a smart bettor by managing your bankroll and considering the potential rewards. Before placing a bet, determine a clear plan and allocate a specific amount of money for each game. Set your stop-loss point, whether you win or lose. Avoid going all-in on the first bet, even if the potential winnings seem enticing. While winning big is tempting, remember that it also comes with a risk. Additionally, be cautious when following the crowd blindly, as not every popular choice guarantees a winning bet.
