How to Bet on Upcoming Sports
You need to create an account to bet on upcoming sports at Stake.com. You can then deposit local fiat currency and cryptocurrency to fund your sports bet. Learn how to deposit and withdraw funds to bet at Stake.com here. With funds in your account, you can decide which upcoming sporting event to bet on and which type to place, choosing from any of the options introduced below.
Popular Types of Bets
You can place a host of different bets on your favourite sports at Stake.com, including the following bet types:
Moneyline/Winner : This is a straight-up bet on the team that you think will win a match. So, for instance, you could place a moneyline bet on Newcastle United to defeat Bournemouth in the English Premier League.
Outrights : In an outright bet, you can bet on the team or person you think will win an event outright. For instance, you might back the NY Giants to win the Superbowl.
Handicap : A handicap bet is a wager that you can place on a team to win, but they must overcome a specific handicap to do so. For instance, you might bet on Chelsea to defeat Luton Town after overcoming a 1.5-goal handicap in the EPL.
Totals (Asian Totals): Asian totals are bets you can place on the number of points or goals scored in a game over a specific total. For example, you could bet on four or more goals being scored in an NHL match.
Over/Under : Over/under betting is very popular in many sports and allows you to predict how many goals or points will be scored. For example, if we set the line at 3.5 in a UEFA Champions League match, you can bet on whether the teams playing will score over or under 3.5 goals in the game.
Props /Propositions/Player Props: Prop bets are wagers that allow you to bet on various outcomes as a match is taking place, and they’re not tied to the overall outcome of the game. As an example, NBA player prop bets include things like the top scorer in a game or how many rebounds a specific player will make.
Spreads : Spread betting is also popular at the Stake Sportsbook, as it allows you to bet against the market when making your selections.
Parlay : A parlay bet – sometimes known as an accumulator – is a bet on several outcomes in the same slip. You might, for example, build an MLB parlay and hope that Baltimore, Tampa Bay, and Cleveland all win their respective fixtures in a game week.
Same Game Multi : Same game multi bets – also known as bet builders – allow you to pick multiple outcomes to bet on the same game. For example, in a UEFA Champions League fixture between Manchester City and Bayern Munich, you might pick Erling Haaland as the first scorer and John Stones to receive a yellow card.
Pre-Match Betting vs. Live Betting
Whether you place pre-match or in-game bets on upcoming sporting events is up to you. Pre-match bets enable you to place wagers before the action starts, while live bets are wagers you can place once the fixture is underway. Both options for bettors are fun and can be profitable, but it’s important that you understand the differences between pre-match and live betting before making your selections.
