Spread betting on football is undoubtedly the most exciting way to have a punt on a match! When spread betting on football (as with all spread bets) its not just a matter of getting the outcome right or wrong, for the amount you win or lose depends upon how right or wrong you are. Sounds confusing? Its not! Let’s have a look at one of the most popular football markets as an example.
So for example the spread on the time of first match goal market might be 39-42. The options for the potential spread bettor are thus:

* ‘Buy’ or ‘go high’ the quote at 42 if he believes the time of the first match goal will be later than the 42nd minute (or indeed he believes there won’t be a goal in the match in which case the market will make-up at 90). Don’t forget the 42nd minute starts when 41:01 is on the match clock

* ‘Sell’ or ‘go low’ the quote at 39 if he believes the time of the first match goal will be earlier than the 39th minute (don’t forget the 39th minute starts with 38:01 on the match clock)

* No trade, if he believes the market is spot-on and the first match goal will indeed fall between the 39th and the 42nd minute

The time of first match goal market is one of literally dozens of football spread betting markets traded in-running throughout a live football match

Spread betting is a leveraged product and can result in losses that exceed your initial deposit. Spread betting may not be suitable for everyone, so please ensure that you fully understand the risks involved.

A good online sportsbook offers you the opportunity to watch your favorite sports, and earn some extra cash by betting on the outcome. But be sure to bet only through the best online sportsbooks. And never bet more than you can afford to lose!

It’s important if you’re going to wager on sports to use only the best online sportsbooks, and use more than one. A good online sportsbook offers a bonus for signing up – but the best online sportsbooks will offer different bonuses to keep your business for the long term.

Because online sportsbook offers are different, using more than one sportsbook gives you the best protection and return on your money. The best online sportsbooks may give you bonuses for adding more money to your account, while others will offer you bonuses or rebates on losses. Some online sportsbook offers are seasonal, so if you want to bet during the playoffs, you have to find online sportsbook offers that fit your betting needs.

How do you find the best online sportsbook offers? Simple. There are professional sites that specialize in online sports betting like www.frideswag.com, where you can mix and match the best online sportsbooks and find the online sportsbook offers that fit your personal betting style.

Another great reason to diversify among the best online sportsbook offers and companies is because some will have better “lines” or odds than others. So you can pick and choose those that will give you the best chance of success. And you can spread your bets around to different companies in small amounts, so if you’re good and making money, you will be less likely to be noticed and banned from a particular bookie! Remember, they don’t like to lose money any more than you do!
