What Does First Half / Full Time Result Mean?

What is Half Time / Full Time Bet?

The half time/full time market, sometimes referred to as "half time/full time," combines two predictions into a single bet. To win, you need to correctly predict both the half time result and the full time result.

For example:

• Home/Home means the home team leads at half time and wins at the end of the match.
• Draw/Away means the first half ends in a draw but the away team wins at the end of the match.
• Away/Draw means the away team leads at half time but the match ends in a draw.

Benefits and Risks of This Market

Benefits

• Better Odds: Since the bet depends on two outcomes, the potential winnings are usually higher than traditional bets.
• Use Your Knowledge: If you have a strong understanding of teams' performances in the first halves compared to the overall matches, this bet will provide you with lucrative value.
• Useful for Heavy Favorites: Instead of betting on just the win market where one side is highly likely to win, betting on both halves in the Home/Home market potentially offers more value.

Risks

• Lower Probability: Since you need to predict two outcomes, the likelihood of losing is higher.
• Inconsistency in Second Halves: As teams often change their tactics after half time, predicting the outcome of the second halves is often more challenging.
