Leadership Betting – How To Play The Halftime/Full-time Bet With Confidence

Leadership Betting is something that almost all the houses usually offer is the halftime/full-time result, whose odds are usually 15 in almost all the parties and teams. The basic strategy to take advantage of this type of bet consists of betting in all the games to win at half-time and draw at the end.

You can do it with local teams, visitors, or both (although the statistics show a slight tendency towards the locals).

You can bet on the 10 games of each day with this system, but you will obtain better results if you select only teams from the middle of the table and irregular. Avoid betting when one team is far superior to the other or the big favorites unless they face each other.

Below you can see which some teams have obtained this result in the Spanish League in the 2005/2006 season:

Home win at half time/ Draw at the endAway victory at half-time/ Draw at the end 
Real Sociedad – At. Bilbao 2-0 / 3-3Mallorca – At. Madrid 1-2 / 2-2
Alavés – Racing 2-1 / 2-2Real Madrid 1-2 / 3-3 Villarreal
Deportivo – Mallorca 2-0 / 2-2Deportivo – Barcelona 1-2 / 3-3
Zaragoza 2-1 / 2-2 ValenciaCádiz – Deportivo 0-1 / 1-1
Real Sociedad – Celta 2-0 / 2-2Cádiz – At. Madrid 0-1 / 1-1
Seville – Mallorca 1-0 / 1-1At. Bilbao 0-1 / 1-1 Espanyol
Zaragoza 1-0 / 1-1 EspanyolCádiz – Real Sociedad 0-1 / 2-2
Villarreal – At. Madrid 1-0 / 1-1   Real Sociedad 0-1 / 1-1 Betis

If we had bet 1 unit on the home team winning at halftime and tied at the end in all 190 home team games of the season, we would have made a profit of 118 units, or 62% profit. By selecting teams of a medium / high quality, but not favorites, and having an irregular season, we would have obtained even more benefit

These are the Spanish League teams in which this result has been mostly achieved in the 2005/2006 season:

  • 7 times: Real Sociedad and At. Bilbao
  • 6 times: Villarreal
  • 5 times: At. Madrid, Betis, Cádiz, Deportivo, Zaragoza, and Valencia
  • 4 times: Mallorca and Racing
  • 3 times: Celta, Sevilla, Espanyol, and Real Madrid

Every season is different so, rather than choosing teams from past seasons, you should keep track of the League and see which quality teams are uneven.

Another system to take advantage of the high odds offered for this type of bet is to make a combined Lucky 15 of four games between matched teams that we think could end in a tie. There are teams that go out in search of the goal but then fall asleep. Try to chronicle the games before they start and think about which of them can be adjusted to these characteristics.

Example: We make a combined Lucky 15 with the following matches:

  • Real Sociedad – At. Bilbao. 1 at the break / X at the end. Odds: 15
  • Villarreal – At. Madrid. 1 at the break / X at the end. Odds: 15
  • Mallorca – Betis. 1 at the break / X at the end. Odds: 15
  • Zaragoza – Valencia. 1 at the break / X at the end. Odd: 15

For a bet of 1.5 units, we would obtain a profit of more than 10,000 units if we match the 4 results. With 3 or 2 hits we would have a profit and with 1 hit the bet would be returned. Finally, you can also use the Halftime/Fulltime bets as boosters of undervalued odds.

Example: We bet on the following match:

Real Madrid – Real Sociedad. 1. Odd: 1.5. Simple bet: 10 units.

As the odds do not seem too valuable to us, and we think that Real Sociedad can hold the tie in the first half even if they end up losing, we use the halftime/Fulltime bet as a booster:

Real Madrid – Real Sociedad. X at the break / 1 at the end. Odds: 5. Simple bet: 5 units.

If we win the main bet we will get 5 units that cover the halftime/full-time bet, which is where the value really is. If we win the latter, we will have obtained 45 profit units in total (5 from Real Madrid’s victory and 40 from the X at halftime, and 1 at the end). A profit of 300% for a bet that is not difficult to hit.
