Birmingham vs Swansea – Betting Odds
Fans and punters continue showing support to the EFL Championships. Betting on various popular football markets is open on most major and smaller bookmaking platforms that offer football betting markets.
Below we will take a look at some of the most popular betting markets for the match between Birmingham City and Swansea City and present the current odds 7bet has to offer on these markets.
1X2 Betting Odds
At 7bet, we currently offer the following Birmingham City vs Swansea City odds for 1X2 market:
| Birmingham City F.C. (1) | Draw (x) | Swansea City F.C. (2) |
| 4/5 | 12/5 | 10/3 |
This betting market is known under many different names: 1×2 betting odds, straight win, match result, or 3 way. If you are new to sports betting, this is a good place to start. The 1×2 bet works with most sports that have one player or team having to beat their opponent at the core.
When you are placing this bet, your goal is to predict the outcome of the match. In football, this can mean one of these three things: the home team (1) wins, the away team (2) wins, or the match ends in a draw (x). Correspondingly, you can also place your wager on one of these outcomes, depending on which one seems to be the most likely to happen. If your prediction turns out to be correct, you qualify for a payout.
In football, match outcome is the most common and popular bet, as it is easy to understand its mechanism. It also follows the main principle of the game, retaining all the excitement for experienced punters.
Double Chance Odds
It is not an uncommon thing in football, or in any sport for that matter, to have two quite well balanced rivals competing against each other. While for a common viewer this means an unpredictable game that could end any possible way, it becomes more difficult for punters to decide who to bet on.
In this case, the double chance bet gives you a better opportunity of predicting the correct outcome. Instead of betting on one of the possible three results of the match, you can now bet on two, and either of them will bring you a win, if it comes true. With football, your possible options for the double chance odds are:
- Either the home team wins or the match ends in a draw (1x)
- Either the home team or the away team wins (12)
- Either the away team wins or the match ends in a draw (x2)
However, before you make your decision to choose the double chance betting market, remember that lower risks on the bet also mean lower odds and lower potential payouts.
Another useful thing to know is when placing this wager makes the most sense. If one of the rivals clearly has an advantage over the other and is seen as the favourite of the match, double chance odds won’t make much sense.
At 7bet, we currently offer the following double chance betting odds on the Birmingham City vs Swansea City match:
| Birmingham City F.C. or draw (1x) | Birmingham City F.C. or Swansea City F.C. (12) | Draw or Swansea City F.C. (x2) |
| 1/5 | 3/10 | 13/15 |
Draw No Bet Odds
Any punter who knows a thing or two about sports wagers will tell you that there are no guarantees in betting. So if you want to protect yourself against an unfavourable outcome, what you can do is choose a bet that gives you a certain level of safeguard.
The draw no bet odds is one such betting market. Here is how it works. You place a bet on one of the teams to win. If your prediction comes true, you win the bet, there are no changes here. But in case of unfavourable results, it can go one of two ways. If the rival team wins, there is not much you can do, your stake is gone. But if the game ends in a draw, you just get your stake back without any commissions or cuts.
So as you can see, your wager is protected against one of the two unfavourable outcomes. This means that you are risking less when betting on the draw no bet market. However, same as with the double chance odds, the odds and, correspondingly, payouts will also go down.
If you think this betting market makes the most sense for the match you want to bet on, don’t forget to check if the bookmaking platform of your choice offers it, as it can happen that draw no bet is not offered on certain games.
At 7bet, we currently offer the following draw no bet betting odds on the Birmingham City vs Swansea City match:
| Birmingham City F.C. (1) | Swansea City F.C. (2) |
| 10/31 | 43/20 |
Handicap Betting Odds
Handicap betting markets might not be as intuitive as the straightforward markets we described before, so it might take you some time to fully understand how they work. This is exactly why handicap betting markets aren’t recommended for beginner punters. Anyone who would like to try their hand at handicap betting are recommended to get some prior experience and, of course, a better knowledge of the sport they are betting on. Below let’s take a look at how handicap betting works.
Handicap bets were introduced mainly for the matches where one of the teams has a clear advantage against the other and has a better chance to win the game. With one team having stronger skills or a more experienced squad, betting essentially becomes pointless because the outcome is too obvious.
So how do handicap bets change that? Well, what they do is balance out the disparity in powers by creating specific conditions that the winner has to fulfill in order for your wager to win. These conditions will be different based on the aim of the sport type. For football, the most popular handicap betting market is the goal difference. As a punter, you have to not just predict the winner, but correctly guess the goal difference between the teams at the end of the game.
Let’s illustrate this with an example. Before the match, you place a handicap bet that Team A will win with a -1.5 goal handicap. So now for your wager to win, not only does Team A have to win the match, they need to have scored at least two goals more than Team B at the end of the game. Don’t confuse this with predicting the correct score because this is absolutely not your task here. The final score may be 2 – 0, 3 – 1, or even 4 – 1, and it won’t affect your wager. As long as the goal difference is 2 or more, all of them will count toward your wager. The only time you will lose your wager is if the score difference is one goal (for example, 1 – 0 or 2 – 1).
Another thing that makes the handicap betting market stand out is that you can also bet on the loser of the match. The main mechanism remains the same. The team losing the match has to do so with a certain goal difference, if your wager is to win. Let’s say, you bet that Team B will lose with +2 handicap, this means the goal difference in the final score shouldn’t exceed one goal (for example, 0 – 1, 2 – 3, or similar) for you to get a payout. If they lose with a higher difference, your bet will also lose.
Handicap bets can be placed on various parameters of the game. At 7bet, we currently offer the following handicap betting odds on the Birmingham City vs Swansea City match:
| Birmingham City F.C. -0.5 | Swansea City F.C. +0.5 |
| 4/5 | 20/21 |
Other popular handicap lines include:
| Birmingham City F.C. | Draw | Swansea City F.C. | |
| Starts 1 – 0 | 1/5 | 14/3 | 10/1 |
| Starts 0 – 1 | 9/4 | 13/5 | 16/17 |
| Starts 0 – 2 | 6/1 | 13/3 | 3/10 |
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) Odds
The main mechanism of this betting market lies in its name and is as straightforward as it sounds. When you are placing a wager on this market, you are trying to predict whether both teams will be able to score a goal at least once during the game.
The easy nature of this betting market makes it a good starting point for newbie punters. This bet doesn’t require you to guess the correct score or predict which team will eventually win the game.
When betting on the both teams to score betting market, you choose from two options: yes or no. You place your stake on yes if you think both teams have it in them to send the ball into the opponent’s net. Your stake goes to no if in your opinion only one team (or maybe none of them) can do it. In order to make an informed prediction, you will need to understand the dynamics of both teams, presence of their top scorers on the field, and their history of playing against each other.
At 7bet, we currently offer the following both teams to score betting odds on the Birmingham City vs Swansea City match:
| Yes | No |
| 11/10 | 5/7 |
Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds
This particular betting market can be considered either as quite simple or as rather difficult. Your verdict will depend on how well you know the playing teams and their scoring tendencies, especially against each other.
When you are placing a stake on the goal total betting market, you are trying to predict whether the sum of the final score will be above (over) or below (under) a specific number determined by the bookie. This is also why this betting market is often called over/under.
Similar to the both teams to score betting market, you are not concerned with the exact final score or the winner of the match. However, you do need to study the potential of both teams, analyse their current squad composition, be aware of their physical form, and know how they normally play against each other.
Let’s take a look at how it works. For example, you place a bet that the match between Team A and Team B will end with the total goal count over 2.5. In other words, the total sum of all the goals scored in the match should amount to 3 or more for your wager to win. The goals can be distributed in any way between the teams, it can be 2 – 1, 3 – 0, 1 – 2, or even 2 – 2. The only thing that will affect your bet is if the match ends with a total goal amount below 3, for example, 1 – 0 (total of 1), 0 – 2 or 1 – 1 (both total of 2).
But why do bookmakers present this betting market in decimals? The explanation is very simple and lies in the practicality of the issue. Whole numbers in the over/under bet can create a huge obstacle for both punters and bookies. Let’s take a look.
Let’s say, bookmakers offered an over/under of 2 instead of 2.5. In this case, if the match ends with exactly two goals scored (2 – 0 or 1 – 1), who are they supposed to make payouts to, the ones who bet on over or the ones who bet on under? To avoid this ambiguity and make their work easier, bookmakers offer the goal total bet in decimals.
At 7bet, we currently offer the following over/under betting odds on the Birmingham City vs Swansea City match:
| Over 2.5 | Under 2.5 |
| 5/4 | 5/8 |
Correct Score Odds
This is another one of more advanced betting markets that are recommended for bettors with extensive experience. While the correct score bet is very popular and pretty easy to understand, betting on it with any amount of confidence and responsible decision making requires you to have a deep knowledge of both the betting mechanisms and football practices.
Your main aim with this betting market is to predict the exact score at the end of the match. It is also possible to bet on a draw if you think this is the most likely outcome for this match. But here as well you will have to specify the exact score of that draw: will it be 2 – 2, 1 – 1, or a goalless 0 – 0 draw?
The nature of this betting market involves higher risks than the majority of other bets. For this reason, the odds and payouts offered on the correct score bet are usually considerably higher than those for the match outcome or other betting markets. It goes without saying that you need to be familiar with both teams, know which members of the squad they are bringing onto the field and whether their top scorers will be playing. You should also take into consideration their recent dynamics, any possible injuries, and their historic performance at the tournament you are betting on.
At 7bet, we currently offer the following correct score betting odds for some of the most popular scorelines on the Birmingham City vs Swansea City match:
| Birmingham City F.C. | Swansea City F.C. | Odds |
| 0 | 0 | 7/1 |
| 1 | 0 | 14/3 |
| 0 | 1 | 9/1 |
| 1 | 1 | 11/2 |
| 2 | 0 | 13/2 |
| 0 | 2 | 25/1 |
| 2 | 1 | 8/1 |
