Introduction to Half Time Result Betting
Half Time Result Betting is a variant of the Single Bet type. A Single Bet type involves predicting an outcome dependent on only one factor. A Double Bet, on the other hand, has two clauses, both of which must be fulfilled for a Double Bet to be won. You must accurately predict which team has a better chance of leading the game, come Half Time.
You need not predict the scoreline or the number of goals by which your favoured team is winning.π All you have to do is punt on a Home Win, a Draw, or an Away Win. Each option comes with its own odds, depending on the lead-up to the match, the form of both teams, their position in the league table, and their squad strength, among others.
π° To put it into perspective, letβs say you are punting on a match contested between and . Tottenham leads the game 2-1 at Half Time. To win a Half Time Result Bet, you must opt for a Home Win. It must be noted that a Half Time Bet result depends on only one half of the match (45 Minutes) and not the entire duration of the game. If you have won a Half Time Result Bet, you can sit back and enjoy the rest of the game!

Half Time Result Betting v Full Time Result Betting
Half Time Result Betting lasts for one half of the match (45 Minutes + Injury Time), as opposed to Full Time Result Bettingπ, which depends on the scoreline of the match, come the end of the game. As such, the odds vary between Half Time Result Betting and Full Time Result Betting.
πΌ As you are only betting on 45 minutes of a game, plus injury time, instead of the full quota of 90 minutes for a football match, the prices of the outcomes that are possible, change in due accordance.
Letβs take an example of a game contested between Liverpool and Tottenham, Liverpool being the home team. We took these odds from a previously contested game in the English Premier League, and these odds were offered by Bet365.
Outcome | Half Time | Full Time |
Liverpool | 6/5 | 61/100 |
Draw | 137/100 | 14/5 |
Tottenham | 4/1 | 9/2 |
π½ As per the table, the biggest difference available, is on the draw. This is not as surprising as it may seem, as typically, more goals are scored in the second half of a game. This in turn increases the chances of the match ending in a draw.
π According to Bet365, Tottenham have a better chance of leading the game at Half Time, than winning the game outright. Similarly, Liverpool are the favourites, as the odds of them winning the game is lower than that of them leading at Half Time. As a punter, odds of 6/5 offer more value than 61/100.
Half Time Handicap Result Betting
Half Time Handicap Result Betting refers to giving one team a head start in a match. This betting variant is popular in matches contested between a strong team, and a weaker opposition. You give the weaker team a head start in terms of goals, and the stronger team will start the match from behind.
β This betting variant is extremely popular among bettors, as you will get much better odds when the stronger team starts from behind. Letβs take an example of a match contested between England and The Czech Republic.
κ¦ Here are the Half Time Result Odds for England starting the match a goal behind (-1).
-
England (-1) @330/100
-
Draw @7/4
-
Czech Republic (+1) @9/10
κ¦ In order for you to win a Half Time Result Bet on England, England must lead by at least 2 goals, when the whistle for Half Time blows. This betting variant provides great value on England starting a goal behind, as you can see.
What is a Betting Margin in a Half Time Result Bet?
When placing a Half Time Result Bet, you must lookout for the best available odds, across several trusted bookmakers.π When you are certain of the match you want to punt on, and the team you think will lead at Half Time, gauging potential bookmakers, and choosing a bookmaker which offers the best odds on the same bet, guarantees you the best chance of obtaining maximum profit from the bet you are going to place.
π What exactly is a Betting Margin though? How does it affect you? Letβs say your friends ask you to choose a number between 1 and 50, and write the chosen number on a piece of paper. If it is an odd number, you win Β£100, and if it is an even number, you win Β£100. Now, this is an example of a 100% market β A market where everyone has an equal chance of winning the bet, without either party holding an advantage of any sort over the other.
If you place the same bet with the intention of reaping a profit off it, the market percentage of the bet will exceed 100%. The very percentage by which a market exceeds the threshold of 100%, is the margin a bookmaker has over you. It must be kept in mind, that the higher is the margin, the lesser are your chances of eventually obtaining a profit off the bet you are going to place. This margin varies from bookmaker to bookmaker, and you must perform your due diligence.
Half Time Result Betting β Tips and Prediction Techniques
π When it comes to placing a Half Time Result Bet, you must consider a few things. The score lines 0-0, 1-0, 0-1, and 1-1 and are most popular at Half Time. You must do background research on the team you want to punt on, or the teams/leagues you may want to punt on. You need to determine whether the team/league witnesses a lot of goals scored in the First Half of matches.
π You also need to look at teams that play an attacking style of football, as opposed to teams that sit back and defend. Normally, when a weaker opposition visits a stronger opposition, they tend to sit back and defend and play out a draw at best. The stronger opposition is more likely to find a way to score, and a smaller scoreline may play a part in the First Half of the match.
Looking at the odds offered by a bookmaker too can go a long way in determining how the match may pan out. Low odds may indicate a tight game. You need to look into team news, injury news, scoring records, and fixture history as wellπ ·. When teams are fresh, they tend to press more, and score in the First Half, after which they may sit back and defend their lead. Similarly, when a team tires, they are more prone to mistakes, hence goals tend to creep in the Second Half.
Best Teams and Leagues to Bet On
πΈ The English Premier League is a high scoring league when it comes to big teams playing against weaker opposition. Similarly, teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich score a lot of goals, and betting on them makes sense as well.
ΰΆ£ The Iranian Persian Gulf Pro League is one of the lowest scoring leagues around. If you are looking to place a Draw, look no further than Torpedo Minsk, of the Vysshaya Liga, Belarus β They tend to play out a lot of draws, and hardly score.
