Bigstock \/ Jointstar<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nHere you can get a return if your selection scores either the first, second, or third goal in the game. It’s just like each-way bets on the horses; half your stake goes on your selection to score the first goal, the other half is on him being one of the first three goalscorers. There are of course reduced odds for this bet but a win is a win isn’t it?<\/p>\n
If your selection is the first to score a goal then all your bet is a winner. However, if someone else gets that first goal your bet is still active, and if your selection scores the second or third goal you’re still on a winner but the win half of your bet is lost.<\/p>\n
Scorecast<\/h3>\n
This is an accumulator for all intents and purposes, where you are not only betting on the first goal scorer of the match, but also the final score. This is very difficult to correctly predict, but the odds reflect this and are usually attractively long.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Amateur bettors are often snared by this trap, and end up losing \u00a320 wagers on 27\/1 odds that were never likely to come through. Remember, those odds are strong for a reason, so if you are going to try a bet of this type then research thoroughly and don\u2019t over stake.<\/p>\n
Using the same Chelsea\/Huddersfield fixture mentioned above, Eden Hazard to be first goalscorer and Chelsea to win 2-0 was 18\/1.<\/p>\n
Goalscorer Coupons<\/h3>\n
Keep an eye out for some great offers when it comes to goalscorer bets. Some bookies offer first goal scorer accumulator coupons. Get five right and the odds are over 1000\/1.<\/p>\n
Another coupon required you to correctly predict eight anytime goal scorers and you could win over \u00a3250,000. This one was even free to enter.<\/p>\n
There are also bets available where if your selection does score the first goal, the odds you are given are increased if they go on to score more goals in the game. A 5\/1 win could\u00a0become 15\/1 if your selection gets a hattrick in a game, for example.<\/p>\n
Money back as a free bet is an increasingly popular offer. If your selected first goalscorer bet goes down but they then manage to score the second goal in the game, you could get the money back as a free bet to use again.<\/p>\n
In-Play Betting<\/h2>\n
It’s possible now of course to bet on games live as they are being played. That means the odds will be fluctuating throughout the game and new markets are being formed all the time.<\/p>\n
This is also the case with goalscorer bets, with odds forever changing and new markets being created for the next goal scorer once a goal goes in. This opens up a whole new world of opportunity if you are able to watch the game, and also allows you to do a bit of your own analysis as the game goes on. Before kick off you might have been certain you would bet on Eden Hazard to score anytime, but actually, watching him struggle for form on the day you have changed your mind and are pleased you waited.<\/p>\n
Equally, if that bet of yours went down early there’s still chance to redeem yourself with a correct goalscorer bet and make a profit to cancel out your previous loss, with the added advantage of having eyes on. Just don\u2019t get carried away.<\/p>\n
Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\nBetting on goal scorers really is an exciting bet. There are some good odds available and with most of the bet types your bet remains alive throughout the game. Make sure you do some research before the game, work out who’s in goalscoring form and who isn’t, and also look for penalty takers (especially if a dirty game is likely) or defenders who can occasionally get on the scoresheet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
