Types of Spread Bets

There are three major types of spread betting:

  • Totals (betting on the total number of goals scored in a match, or seats won in an election),
  • Supremacies and Match Bets (predicting the overall winner of an event), and
  • Performance Index Bets (where points are awarded to teams or players over the course of a tournament or season).

In this section, we take a look at all these forms in more detail, along with examples of how each bet would work.
