Common Questions & Market Pitfalls
What happens if my player doesn’t start?
Most UK bookmakers will void the bet and return your stake if the player does not feature at all. If they come on as a sub, the bet usually stands.Are Shots on Target different from total shots?
Yes. A shot on target must be a goal or a save by the keeper. Hitting the woodwork or having a shot blocked by a defender does not count as a SOT.How does “To be fouled” work?
This counts every time the referee whistles for a foul committed against the specific player. It is a great market for hold-up strikers like Brobbey.Do cards in extra time count?
Standard props markets only cover the “Regular 90 Minutes” plus injury time. Extra time in cup games usually requires a specific “including ET” market.Why do odds change rapidly on matchday?
Odds fluctuate based on team news (lineups), betting volume, and late injuries. It’s often best to wait for official lineups 60 minutes before KO.Comprehensive Q&A
What is a ‘Player Prop’ in football betting?
A player prop is a bet placed on a specific individual’s performance metrics rather than the overall match result.
Instead of picking a winner, you wager on outcomes like how many shots a player takes, whether they get booked, or the number of passes they complete.
How many shots on target does Wilson Isidor average?
Wilson Isidor has recorded 14 shots on target from 36 total attempts this season, representing a 39% accuracy rate.
Given his high volume of shots from inside the box (33), he is a primary candidate for the 2+ shots on target market against Liverpool.
Why is ‘Sunderland or Draw’ considered a strong pick?
Sunderland are currently on a 13-match unbeaten run at the Stadium of Light, making them incredibly difficult to beat at home.
Combined with Liverpool’s recent form of just one win in seven league matches, the Double Chance market offers a high probability of success.
Does a shot that hits the post count as a shot on target?
No, a shot hitting the post or crossbar is statistically classified as a shot off-target unless it goes into the net.
For a shot to count as ‘on target’ for your prop bet, it must be a goal or a deliberate save by the goalkeeper.
Who is the most likely goalscorer for Sunderland?
Brian Brobbey and Wilson Isidor are the most likely scorers, with Brobbey leading the club’s league charts with 5 goals.
Sunderland’s tactics involve using Brobbey as a physical target, making him a central figure in most of their attacking transitions.
What is the significance of Liverpool’s late-game nerve?
Liverpool have conceded four winning goals in the 90th minute or later this season, suggesting a lack of concentration late in games.
This trend supports bets on Sunderland to score late or for cards to be shown as Liverpool defenders potentially panic in the closing stages.
What does the ‘Over 2.5 Goals’ market represent?
An ‘Over 2.5 Goals’ bet wins if there are three or more total goals scored in the match by both teams combined.
In this fixture, the stats show a conflict: Liverpool average 15.5 shots per game, but Sunderland’s strong defensive shape at home often leads to lower-scoring affairs.
How will Granit Xhaka’s absence affect the game?
The absence of Granit Xhaka removes a vital organiser and experienced passer from the Sunderland midfield.
This likely means Liverpool will find it easier to maintain their 60% average possession, potentially increasing the defensive workload for Sunderland’s backline.
