What’s Inside:

How Soccer Betting Differs from American Sports: Learn why soccer betting is unique — from the 90-minute rule to why bets settle at the end of regulation, even if there's extra time or penalty kicks.

Understanding 3-Way Betting: Master one of the most common soccer bets: choosing between a win, loss, or draw. Know when to target underdogs, draws, or favorites based on match scenarios.

Moneyline, Totals, and Goal Lines Explained: Get clear on soccer-specific moneylines, how over/under total goals work, and how goal lines (similar to spreads) create different betting opportunities.

Futures Betting in Soccer: Dive into betting markets like which team will win a tournament (World Cup, UEFA Champions League) or finish top of a domestic league. Understand odds movement throughout a season.

Props and Specialty Bets: Explore popular soccer prop bets, including “Both Teams to Score” (BTTS), “Correct Score,” “First Goal Scorer,” and player props like total shots or cards received.

Key Tips for Betting Soccer Smarter: Learn what stats matter most in soccer betting — from team form and injuries to head-to-head matchups, goal differential, and lineup rotation based on tournament schedules.

Bonus: Injury Time & Extra Time Basics: Understand how injury time impacts betting results, and why knowing tournament overtime rules is critical before placing knockout-stage bets.

Summary Teaser (Optional add-on):
Soccer betting isn’t like betting football, basketball, or baseball — and if you don't know the differences, you're leaving money on the table. Our free Soccer Betting 101 Cheat Sheet walks you through everything you need to bet smarter: from 3-way betting basics to futures, goal lines, and beyond.

(208121) Boca Juniors at (208122) River Plate

2:30pm EDT - Apr 27/2025

THE PLAY: REGULATION Over 9 Cards (-125)

River Plate vs Boca Juniors
Argentina, Sunday, 2:30pm ET

Play: Over 9 Cards
Odds at Time of Release: -125
Line Parameter: Line good to -135

Referee Nicolas Ramirez dished out 11 cards in the other big, hateful derby he officiated in March 16 between Independiente and Racing Club, while also dishing out 9 cards in the other, smaller, derby between Lanus and Banfield.

He was also the referee when River Plate won by 1-0 away at Boca Juniors back in September, showing 12 cards, and also showed 12 cards in the Independiente vs Racing Club last season. A good referee for cards, and he won't hesitate to reach his pocket if players give him a reason, and these players WILL give him reasons.

Card Totals in recent H2H: 12/11/5/8/17/13/5/6/10/7/9/11/8/9/10

At least 9 cards in 9 of L/15 H2H with some real gems in that span, matches with 6 (!) red cards, a ton of fouls and a lot of nerves.

The line is way too high, set at 9 Cards or 9.5 Cards depending on where you look, but this is a River/Boca hateful rivalry and it's worth a shot. This is not exactly a crucial match for either side, but bad blood runs DEEP with these two. Not many books out there offer card props in this match, but B365 do have the Over 9 Cards at -125 and we like that.

Take 2% on the Over 9 Cards (-125), line good to -135

Consultant Bio

Pavlos betting on European sports when he was in High School, back when most people his age didn't even know how to bet. After acquiring a Bachelor's Degree in International Economic Relationships and development from the Democritus University in Greece, Pavlos took a different path.

Things really took off for him in 2014 when he officially started writing predictions for US-based sites. Things picked up pretty quickly, and he has produced thousands upon thousands of match previous and predictions. He tends to venture off the beaten path, looking for hidden gems in a myriad of games you can bet on.

Single and double bets aside, Pavlos likes to play the odds as well. While some days there are safe single bets, there are other days that provide opportunities for different bets. Bets like Correct Scores, amount of Yellow Cards, Half-Time/Full-Time results, and all kinds of prop bets. Pavlos covers the following leagues: Major League Soccer (MLS), Copa America, EURO Cup, English Premier League, German Bundesliga, Spanish La Liga, Italian Serie A, French Ligue 1, Champions League, and Europa League.

The betting systems he created have seen some massive pay-outs over the years. A couple of correct scores paired together can potentially save your entire season. These are small-stake bets that cost a few units but could bring massive returns on your investment.
