Betting companies offer bets on dozens of sports – individual and team, popular and unfamiliar. A special niche in betting is occupied by volleyball – not the most dynamic sport, but interesting for a large number of observers. Over time, bettors began to develop strategies for volleyball, popularizing bets on this discipline, and bookmakers made the choice of events in the list wider and more attractive. In this material, we will talk about what volleyball bets are, what types of bets are in line and painting
Bookmakers offer to bet on the total, outcome and handicap. Let’s take a closer look at the nuances of betting on volleyball.
Outcome Bets
It is very difficult to predict the exact score in volleyball. When the game is played between teams of different levels, the ratio of the game 3: 1 is too low. Yes, many bookmakers offer to bet both on the outcome of the match and on the result of a single set. Experienced betters avoid this type of bet in volleyball.
Total betting
Total betting is the most interesting market in volleyball. You can bet on the total number of points scored by a certain team for the entire match, or for a specific set. Before starting a bet, the player must conduct a thorough analysis: the game form of the teams and key players, the work of the block, the average number of points in a set, the average number of points in a match, etc. Bookmakers calculate the total points in the match based on the proposed score and the average score.
Handicap betting in volleyball
A handicap bet in volleyball assumes the difference in the number of points scored between teams.That is, this is a deliberate advantage or an acceptable lag of one of the teams. For example: win 1P with a handicap of 7.5. The bet will play if the first team wins the set by 8 points or more. Many bookmakers offer odds not only for individual games, but for the entire match.
Live bets
If you carefully follow the line, you can increase your bankroll by making live bets. In this mode, there are the same options as in the pre-match line: correct score, total, handicap. You can also bet on who will win the next point. For the bet to play, it is important to concentrate. The advantage of Live is that the better, in real time, can follow the match and place bets depending on how events develop on the site.
Even-odd
Quite a risky bet, which is almost impossible to guess. And if you take into account the bookmaker”s margin, then betting on such a market does not make any sense.
Some risk-averse bettors make such bets, but this requires careful analysis and good preparation for the match. But in any case, here it remains to rely entirely on luck.
Volleyball betting strategies
Volleyball is not the most difficult sport, but still there are some nuances here. Those who understand the essence of the game and understand the rules can bet on this sport. In addition, a proven strategy is indispensable here. Let”s consider the best of them.
Favorite strategy. The bottom line is to find the favorites of the match, who are more likely to win. Odds for the favorite – from 1.01 to 1.4.The strategy will slowly increase the better”s bank, while the risk of losing is minimal, since the probability of winning the favorite is 71-99%. Choosing this strategy, it is better to bet with a fixed amount, which should not exceed 5-10% of the bank.
Total strategy. This includes: bets on total over and total under the game of the match, individual totals of teams and so on. Before betting, it is important to study how the team plays and what are the scores in games and sets. Only after careful analysis can you identify a certain pattern and apply it in your bets.
Сorridor strategy. The value of handicaps in volleyball can fluctuate greatly. The better can bet in different directions on the extreme values of the handicap. For example, 1P was far ahead in the score and the handicap for it changed from pre-match -2.5 to -14.5. The team won the game and took the lead in the second. But since the teams are equal, the second team can catch up in the score. You can bet at the beginning of the meeting handicap P1 -2.5, and then on the handicap 2P +14.5. It turns out a corridor of 16 points. If the team hits this corridor, the better wins both bets.
Live strategy. When choosing matches for betting, carefully study the statistics. Since at night in live bookmakers slowly change the odds, the bettor can take advantage of this and get a good profit. The essence of the strategy is to constantly monitor events and play ahead of the curve. The player can place bets depending on the situation on the site.
