Points Betting

Points Betting

Introduced by the online bookmaker PointsBet, Points betting is a betting system that is based on the margin of victory or loss. In this method, your payout or loss isn't fixed. Instead, the closer your prediction is to the final result (margin or point spread), the larger your win. Similarly, the more it falls short, the more you lose. So, the system offers the potential for both significant wins and losses.

Expected Goals Betting

Expected Goals Betting Explained

Expected goals (xG) is a metric in football betting that quantifies the likelihood of a shot resulting in a goal. For punters that engage in EG betting, this statistical model takes every goal attempt created in a game and compares them to thousands of similar historical chances. It then assigns a figure from 0 to 1 to each chance based on its probability of achieving a goal. This figure is the expected goal or xG. For instance, an xG value of 0.2 means the shot is scored 20% of the time based on historical data analysis of opportunities with similar characteristics.
