Football Betting Rules at Bet365.com


90 minutes play

All match markets are based on the result at the end of a scheduled 90 minutes play unless otherwise stated. This includes any added injury or stoppage time but does not include extra-time, time allocated for a penalty shootout or golden goal. The exceptions to this rule are in relation to friendly matches, where all match markets will be settled based on the actual result when the game finishes (excluding any extra-time), irrespective of whether the full 90 minutes is played, and Beach Soccer where markets are specifically settled on 36 minutes play only.

Extra time In-Play Markets
Extra time In-Play Markets are settled on the official statistics for the extra time period. Any goals or corners that were taken or scored during regulation time for the football match your’e betting on do not count in Bet365 football betting rules.

Matches postponed, brought forward or abandoned
An unplayed or postponed match will be treated as a non-runner for settling purposes unless it is played within the same week (ending on Sunday) in which case the bet will stand unless cancelled by mutual consent as part of the Bet365 Football Betting Rules. If a match is rescheduled from the weekend to a Monday night for the purpose of live TV coverage then all bets on that match will stand. Should any match be played prior to the date or kick-off time denoted then any such match may be included provided the wager is placed not later than the revised kick-off time. Any match abandoned before the completion of 90 minutes play will be void except for those bets the outcome of which has already been determined at the time of abandonment. The market must be fully determined for bets to stand For example, first player to score or time of the first goal bets will stand provided a goal has been scored at the time of abandonment. The only exception to the above abandoned match rule, is for all South American club matches where Full-Time Result and Double Chance markets (both pre-game and In-Play) will be settled on the score at the time of the abandonment providing the relevant league allows the result to stand.

Matches not played as listed
If a match venue is changed (other than to the away team’s ground) then bets already placed will stand providing the home team is still designated as such for Bet365 Football Betting Rules. If the home and away team for a listed match are reversed (e.g. match is played at the original away team’s ground) then bets placed based on the original listing will be void. We will endeavour to identify on our Website all matches played at a neutral venue. For matches played at a neutral venue (whether indicated on our site or not), bets will stand regardless of which team is listed as the home team. If official football fixtures, lists different team details to those listed on our Website then bets will be void e.g. official fixture specified in the team name, Reserves/Age Group e.g. Under 21’s/Gender e.g. Women. In all other cases bets stand, including instances where we list a team name without specifying the term ‘XI’.

Settlement of football bets
Where applicable, statistics provided by the Press Association (PA) will be used to settle wagers, unless there is indisputable evidence that the PA statistics are incorrect for these Bet365 Football Betting Rules. Where PA stats are not provided, we will use independent evidence to support bet settlement. If there is conflicting independent evidence, we will settle on the majority independent view. When this is not clear, where applicable the official league website will take priority. In the absence of any independent evidence bets will be settled based on our own statistics.

Predict the aggregate time of all goals scored in the match, eg. goals in the 24th, 51st and 59th minutes make up at 134 minutes. Any goals scored in first half added time count as 45. Any goals scored in second half added time count as 90. Should a dispute arise as to the time of any goal then the time provided by the PA will be deemed the time for settlement purposes. If a match is abandoned then all bets will be made void apart from those that have already made up (eg. goals in minutes 40, 45 and 60 and abandonment in 65th minute – bets predicting over 140 total goal minutes will be paid out as winners whilst under and bracket bets will be losers).

Number of cards in match football bet
Yellow card counts as 1, red card counts as 2. Second yellows are ignored for settlement purposes (ie. maximum card count per player is 3). Settlement will be made with reference to all available evidence to cards shown during the scheduled 90 minutes play. Any card shown after the full time whistle has been blown will be disregarded. Cards shown to non-players (e.g. managers or substitutes who play no subsequent part in the game) do not count towards the total. In the event of a match being abandoned before 90 minutes have been played then all bets will be void unless settlement of bets is already determined.

Total shirt numbers football bet
If any goal is an own goal, the shirt number of the scorer of the own goal will count. It will count towards the side which is credited with the goal. Note, this is different from the ruling for First Player to Score. For the purposes of any bet on shirt numbers a player will be deemed to wear throughout the game the shirt worn at the start of play (or, in the case of a substitute, when he comes on to the pitch). Any player whose shirt bears no number on his first joining the field of play will be allocated number 12. In the event of a match being abandoned before 90 minutes have been played, all bets will be void, unless settlement of bets is already determined.
