Over/under betting is when you bet if the final total score will be over or under the total predicted score. The total score is the combine score from both teams that the sportsbooks/vendor predicts before the game. The objective is to predict if the total final score is more than or less than what the sportsbooks/vendors predicted.

Example: FOOTBALL

SPORTSBOOKS PREDICTIONS: 50 total points

TEAM A: 25 total points (final score)

TEAM B: 30 total points (final score)

COMBINE TOTAL: 55 points

How to bet for this prediction?

Betting over: placing a bet where the combined total score is 51 or more. Meaning you think the game will have a higher combined final score.

Betting under: placing a bet where the combined total score is 49 or less. Meaning you think the game will have a lower combined final score.

For this example if you placed your bet for the score to be 51 or more (over) then you would win. If you placed your bet to 49 or less (under) then you would have lost.

If you happen to place your bet for the final score to be 55 and the final score is 55, you broke even would get your return back, because you didn’t win or lose, that would be called a push. This isn’t bad, but you didn’t really gain any money, and you want win, that is the bottom line.

How to win using the over/under method?

Follow a reputable sports betting system.

Check the starting goals.

Skip any unclear signals (don’t place your bets if the expert handicappers don’t have a high confidence level in the final score.)
