Rugby: Total Points - Spread Bet

For this bet you simply predict the total number of points that will be scored in a rugby match.

Example For the Group B match between Australia and Wales the bookies might predict a relatively free scoring game with plenty of points, perhaps a Total Points prediction of 56 - 59.

If you expected an open game, you would bet high at 59, for the stake of your choice, in this case £5 per point.

Had you been proved correct and the game had finished 42 - 28, a total of 69 points, you would have made 10 times your stake.

(69 - 59) x your stake = 10 points x £5 per point = £55.

Had it been a tight game and ended with few points, eg 19 – 12, and therefore a total of 31 points, then you would have lost 28 times your stake.

(31 - 59) x your stake = - 28 points x £5 per point = -£140

The interesting element with this bet is not who scores the points or which team or even how the points are scored. You are basically betting on a high scoring game, or if you Sell the spread, in this case Selling at 56 points, you are spread betting on a low scoring game

Enjoy the games!
