Read the following if you fancy having a go at world cup spread betting.

Go High, known as ‘Buy’, if you think the result will end up higher than the number. If you think the result will end up lower than the number you go Low. This is known as a Sell.

For example – the number of expected Total Goals in this World Cup is trading at 159-161 with extrabet.com. With 64 games in total do you think it will finish higher or lower? In the last 5 World Cups England have scored at Total Goals tally of 6, 6, 7, 8 and 7. They are priced at 10-10.7 expected goals in the 2010 World Cup at extrabet.com. Think they will score Less than 10 goals? Then Sell.

If you made a Sell of England Total World Cup Goals for say £10 per Goal at 10 Goals and they only scored 7 you would be a winner! As you made a Sell (Go Low) at 10 and they only scored 7 you would be right by 3 Goals. At £10 per goal that’s a £30 win. If you made a Sell for £10 at 10 Total Goals for England in the World Cup and they actually scored 13, you would be wrong by 3 goals. At £10 per goal that would be a £30 loss.

Other popular sports spread betting markets in the World Cup include – Total Tournament Red cards, yellow cards and headed goals as well markets like the Fastest Goal scored and the Winner 100 Index~In stead of just backing top goal scorer and outright winner on the normal fixed odds market why not look at the popular spread markets.
