Prematch Bet

Prematch Bet refers to a wager placed on an event before it begins, using the odds available at the time of placing the bet. Unlike in-play betting, where odds change dynamically during the event, prematch bets are locked in at the given odds once placed.

Bookmakers may adjust prematch odds leading up to the event based on factors like team news, injuries, market trends, and weather conditions, but your bet remains at the odds you accepted.

Common prematch markets include match result (1X2), over/under goals, handicaps, correct score, and first goalscorer. Many bettors prefer prematch betting for its predictability compared to live betting, where odds fluctuate in real-time.
