Betting on Bournemouth
Bournemouth are a small club in a big league, so home prices are often tight. Say a bookmaker offers 2.30 on a Bournemouth home win, 3.50 on the draw and 3.15 on the away win. Those prices imply chances of 43.5%, 28.6% and 31.7%, which total 103.8%, so the margin is 3.8%. A €10 bet on the draw at 3.50 returns €35.00, a €25.00 profit. The prices are illustrative, not a quote. Our guide to how betting odds work walks through the sums.
Before you bet on a Bournemouth match, check for team news, because line-ups are announced about an hour before kick-off and prices often move. Our bet types guide explains markets such as draw no bet and both teams to score, and the free bets guide explains why offers rarely pay what the headline suggests.
