What is a correct score bet?

A correct score bet is on the exact final score, so it pays a lot but rarely wins.

Example: Bet $5 on a 2-1 home win at $8.50. Only if the game ends exactly 2-1 do you get $42.50 back.

There are many possible scores, so each one is a long shot.

Most correct score bets lose, so keep the stake small.

As of 5 October, the bookies keep about $7 of every $100 bet on three-way soccer results (home, draw or away) across the games we track.
