Double Chance Tips and Predictions - Friday 16th to Sunday 18th August

Salford City v Port Vale – Home Win or Draw

Including the playoffs, Salford have performed pretty impressively on their own patch of late, winning five, drawing two and losing just one of their previous eight league games. Port Vale rarely claim all three points on their travels, managing to do so just three times in 17 trips, though a record of ten draws during this period suggests that they are hard to beat.

Blackburn Rovers v Middlesbrough – Home Win or Away Win

When it comes to home form, Blackburn are very much the Jekyll and Hyde team of the Championship, with Tony Mowbray’s charges winning six and losing six of their last 13 matches at Ewood Park. Middlesbrough have been similarly inconsistent on their travels at this level of late, winning six, losing five and drawing just three of their previous 14 games.

Wycombe Wanderers v MK Dons – Home Win or Away Win

Over the course of their last 11 away matches in the league, MK Dons have secured five victories and suffered six defeats, so they clearly don’t have time for sharing the spoils. This is a philosophy that supporters of Wycombe can relate to, as they have seen their team win three and lose three of their previous six home games in the third tier of English football.

Sheffield United v Crystal Palace – Home Win or Away Win

Sheffield United have grown accustomed to winning matches at Bramall Lane, drawing only once on the way to securing ten victories in their last 14 Championship fixtures on home soil. Finishing on level terms has also proven unusual for Crystal Palace on their top-flight travels, however, with the Eagles winning eight and losing eight of their previous 18 away games.

Double Chance Tips and Predictions - Friday 9th to Sunday 11th August

Walsall v Forest Green Rovers – Home Win or Away Win

Including the playoffs, Forest Green have been the ultimate Jekyll and Hyde team on their fourth-tier travels of late, winning five and losing five of their previous ten matches. This up and down form is something that Walsall can certainly relate to, as the Saddlers’ last seven home games have resulted in three victories and three defeats, so things could go either way.

Newcastle United v Arsenal – Home Win or Away Win

Newcastle have drawn only once over the course of their last 20 top-flight home games, winning nine and losing ten of the remaining 19 fixtures. For their part, Arsenal have not finished on level terms all that often themselves in the Premier League of late, winning ten, losing seven and drawing just two of their last 19 matches in the competition.

Haugesund v Ranheim – Home Win or Draw

Ranheim have forgotten what it is like to win games at the top table of Norwegian football, though they have grabbed a couple of draws during their current six-match winless run. Haugesund, by way of contrast, have been beaten only twice in their previous ten Eliteserien fixtures, but five draws during this period means that they can definitely be contained.

Goteborg v Falkenbergs – Home Win or Draw

Goteborg are clearly a capable side, losing just once in 15 top-flight fixtures, but the fact that the other 14 games have been divided evenly between wins and draws suggests that they are not the most clinical of outfits. Falkenbergs have now gone 17 matches without a win on their travels, but they have finished on level terms four times in eight Allsvenskan contests overall.

Double Chance Tips and Predictions - Friday 2nd to Sunday 4th August

PEC Zwolle v Willem II – Home Win or Away Win

PEC Zwolle have blown incredibly hot and cold over the course of their last 12 home games in the Eredivisie, winning and losing five times apiece. Willem II are no strangers when it comes to this sort of inconsistency either, winning six and losing five of their previous 12 top-flight fixtures on the road, so a draw seems unlikely when the two teams lock horns.

Nottingham Forest v West Bromwich Albion – Home Win or Away Win

Draws have become somewhat of an alien concept at the City Ground in recent times, with Nottingham Forest winning nine and losing five of their previous 14 second-tier games at the venue. Including the playoffs, West Brom have finished on level terms only once in 18 Championship trips themselves, securing nine wins and suffering eight defeats along the way.

Kortrijk v Charleroi – Home Win or Away Win

Over the course of their previous 12 top-flight fixtures on their own patch, Kortrijk have picked up eight victories and been beaten on four occasions, failing to finish on level terms even once. Charleroi have been similarly averse to sharing the spoils on the road, with their last 13 away games at this level resulting in seven wins, five losses and just a single draw.

Lyngby v AGF Aarhus – Home Win or Away Win

Lyngby have been the epitome of inconsistency in recent top-flight home games, securing three wins and suffering three losses in their last six encounters. Aarhus have not been big on draws on their Superliga travels either, managing just two in 13 matches, and a return of five victories and six defeats during this period suggests that things could go either way here.

Double Chance Tips and Predictions - Friday 26th to Sunday 28th July

Eskilstuna v Hammarby – Draw or Away Win

Hammarby come into this contest in fine form, having enjoyed three consecutive Allsvenskan victories, though the Stockholm-based outfit have only triumphed twice in their previous nine away games at this level. Struggling Eskilstuna have enjoyed just two wins in 12 top-flight home matches of late, but they have drawn four of their last seven on their own patch.

Orenburg v Zenit St. Petersburg – Draw or Away Win

Defending champions Zenit St. Petersburg have started their campaign with a couple of victories, thus making it 11 wins from 15 top-flight fixtures of late, but they have drawn three times in their last six trips. Orenburg are clearly no pushovers on their own patch, suffering just two defeats in their most recent 11 home matches in the Russian Premier League.

FK Mlada Boleslav v SFC Opava – Home Win or Draw

FK Mlada Boleslav possess a pretty formidable recent home record, winning nine, drawing six and losing only one of their previous 16 games at the highest level of Czech football. SFC Opava, by way of contrast, do not have the best of records on their domestic travels, winning one, drawing four and losing four of their previous nine top-flight matches.

Eupen v Antwerp – Home Win or Away Win

Supporters attending Eupen home matches have tended to go away feeling either happy or disappointed in recent times, as just one of the previous 20 top-flight fixtures staged at their ground has ended in a draw. It has been a similar story when Antwerp have taken to the road of late, with only two of their previous 17 league games finishing on level terms.

What Does Double Chance Mean?

First things first, what is double chance betting?

This double chance market allows you to cover two of the three possible win-draw outcomes in a match with one bet.

• Home & Draw (1X): Your bet wins if the home team wins or the game ends in a draw
• Away & Draw (12): Your bet wins if the away team wins or the game ends in a draw
• Home & Away (2X): Your bet wins if either the home or away team wins

Helping You Placing a Bet of This Nature

The KickOff algorithm statistically calculates the likelihood of these three outcomes occurring (home win or draw, away win or draw, home win or away win) by using the comparative form for each team.

We also provide you with statistical form data to support each prediction.

So, if you’re looking to make a double chance bet you’ve come to the right place. We offer analysis of likely outcomes for all matches in major leagues, including the Premier League, Serie A, La Liga and the Champions League.

Example

Let’s put the bet into practice.

For example, Liverpool and Manchester City where the game takes place at Anfield. This makes Liverpool the home team.

• Home & draw = your bet wins if Liverpool wins or draws
• Away & draw = your bet wins if Manchester City wins or draws
• Home & away = your bet wins if Liverpool or Manchester City win

Pros and Cons

There are some clear advantages and disadvantages concerned with this betting market.

Advantages

With this type of bet, you give yourself a higher chance of winning. It’s certainly less risky than others, such as the correct score market.

Due to football’s lack of predictability, this market proves hugely popular with punters.

Disadvantages

Inevitably, this has its consequences; the main one being that odds are shorter. This means that you may not be able to find some of the profits associated with other areas of sports betting.

However, this isn’t a universal rule, many football tipsters have enjoyed big wins here. Some punters believe that the high chance of a win outweighs the shorter odds.

Double Chance Odds Comparison

Whenever you add a prediction to your KickOff bet slip, we automatically compare odds from a variety of leading bookmakers and best betting sites. This helps you find the right option for you.

You can also add a number of selections into your bet slip to create a multiple (or accumulator) bet.

As you make additional selections, the odds change to reflect the folds of your bet. Once your KickOff bet slip is complete you can choose a bookmaker to wager with.

Alternatives

Haven’t found what you’re looking for in this market? There are some alternatives.

Draw No Bet

Draw No Bet is another market that offers you a level of protection against losing. Essentially, if the game ends in draw, punters receive their stake back.

Asian Handicap

Asian handicap betting places the stronger team at a disadvantage at the start of the match, for example half a goal.

This makes the underdog more likely to win, giving your bet more security.

It also makes the game more exciting.

Win Draw Win

Win Draw Win allows you to bet on a team to win a specific match, or you can bet on it to end in a draw.

To give you a chance of success, here are some of the best double chance tips.

Look for Offers

To boost your earnings, why not make money at the bookies’ expense?

There are a number of deals to be on the lookout for, such as free bet offers. These are sometimes only available for new customers, however not always.

Enhanced odds offers can also help boost your winnings, bumping up the potential return for your original stake.

Build an Accumulator

Double Chance odds are much lower than those found in other markets, which makes accumulators popular, because they allow for more flexibility.

Covering off two possible win-draw outcomes in a game increases the chances of a selection winning.
When you pull a number of predictions together in an accumulator, you can create a coupon that offers strong returns, but is less risky than a traditional win acca.
