The 1X2 bet, also known as match betting, full time betting or three-way betting, is a
popular bet in soccer 💻 and is also found in other sports where a draw is a possible
outcome. 1X2 may seem like a strange 💻 name for this bet, which can cause some confusion
at first, but if you have bet on sports before then 💻 you have more than likely seen this
betting option in action.
The 1X2 stands for the three outcomes possible in a 💻 game. The
1 is for an away team win, the X for a draw and the 2 for a home 💻 team win. The 1X2
markets do not provide any form of handicap, but instead the odds shown indicate the
chances 💻 of each outcome occurring.
1X2 Bet Example
Here is an example of a 1X2 bet on
an Premier League match from BetOnline.ag.
(1) 💻 Liverpool -208
(X) Draw +320
(2) Everton
+290
As you can see a 1X2 bet is exactly the same as a typical moneyline 💻 wager with 3
possible outcomes. In this example Liverpool is a big favorite to win the game, while
Everton is 💻 a big underdog.
1X2 Odds
Online sportsbooks will also offer double chance
bets or no draw bets that reduce the number of 💻 possible outcomes from 3 down to 2. It
is important that you perform calculations to find out if you will 💻 receive a higher
return splitting your total wager among the 1X2 betting options or placing the double
chance or no 💻 draw bets. Check out those pages to see the calculations.
1X2 Sports
As
mentioned before 1X2 bets can be found for any 💻 sport that has three possible outcomes
(home win, draw, away win). Soccer is the most popular sport for 1X2 betting, 💻 but other
sports where this 1X2 bets are available include hockey and rugby among others.
