1X2 Betting Odds

The 1X2 market allows bettors to pick one out of three options in a match. This is one of the most popular markets in football betting as it is simple to understand. These are the three ways you can bet in a 1X2 market:

• 1: Home team wins (Sunderland)
• X: Draw
• 2: Away team wins (Arsenal)
  

UK sportsbooks present odds as fractions, where the denominator represents the bet amount (stake) and the numerator is the profit. Let’s examine the Sunderland vs Arsenal betting odds in the 1X2 market and how much you can expect to win: the odds are 6/1 for Sunderland, 16/5 for a draw, and 3/7 for Arsenal. Odds of 6/1 on Sunderland mean your bet will pay £6 for every pound if they win. Similarly, successful bets on the Gunners pay £3 for every £7 wagered, and bets on a draw pay £16 for every £5.

When considering the odds in this market, look at whether your favourite team has “long” or “short” odds. Long odds pay more, but the outcome is less likely to happen. On the other hand, short odds pay less but have a higher chance of success. Also, consider both teams’ recent form. Sunderland had four wins, four draws, and two losses in their last 10 matches. The Gunners are on an unbeaten 10-game win streak.

Double Chance Odds

The Double Chance market is ideal for cautious bettors. It allows you to pick two outcomes in a single wager:

• Sunderland or Draw (1X): This bet has 16/11 odds. It loses if Arsenal wins.
• Sunderland or Arsenal (12): This is a match winner bet with 1/5 odds. It loses if the match draws.
• Draw or Arsenal (X2): This outcome has 1/9 odds. It loses if Sunderland wins.

While the Gunners are on an unbeaten streak, bettors should not underestimate the Black Cats. They defeated Chelsea 1–2 in October. So, they might have a fighting chance in Saturday’s match. Pick this bet market if you are unsure which team to back or believe there’s a high possibility of a draw.

Note that the odds in Double Chance are always short because it allows you to cover more outcomes.

Handicap 1X2 Betting Odds

A handicap is useful if you think both teams are not evenly matched and the odds will be tilted heavily in one team’s favour, making the match all too predictable.

In this case, the bookmaker gives you the option of handicap betting, where the weaker team gets a head start and the stronger team gets a disadvantage.

For this fixture, only Handicap 1X2 odds are available. You’ll see several scores that you can pick from. For example, “starts 2:0” means that before the game begins, the score is already considered 2–0, giving Sunderland a two-goal lead. Now, you can pick an outcome from 1X2 that you think is most likely with a 2–0 opening score. If you bet on Arsenal under the 2–0 line, you are betting on them to overcome a disadvantage. The Gunners will need to win by a three-goal margin to overcome this gap. Here’s how it works:

• 2–0: Sunderland wins (actual score 0–0)
• 2–1: Sunderland wins (actual score 0–1)
• 2–2: Draw bets wins (actual score 0–2)
• 3–2: Sunderland wins (actual score 1–2)
• 2–3: Arsenal wins (actual score 0–3)

Always keep the goal margins in mind when selecting a handicap in this market. You can pick various starting scores like 4–0, 3–0, 2–0, or 1–0 that give Sunderland a head start. You can also choose a 0–1 handicap to give Arsenal an advantage.

Both Teams to Score (BTTS) Odds

The Both Teams to Score (BTTS) is a special market that only considers one aspect of the match. Here, you have to predict whether both teams will be able to score at least once. The final winner or the score doesn’t matter.

“Yes” bets win as long as the final score doesn’t have a zero in it. For example, if the score is 1–2, 1–4, or 2–2, your bet wins. Even if the match ties, your bet wins as long as the score is at least 1–1. The “No” bets are the opposite, where bettors predict that one or both teams will keep a clean sheet. “No” bets win if the final score has a zero in it, like 0–1, 0–0, 0–2, and so on.

Study both teams’ clean sheet records when considering the Sunderland vs Arsenal odds in this market. In their last 10 fixtures, Sunderland kept three clean sheets and Arsenal kept nine. The higher the clean sheets, the higher the chances that “BTTS No” bets may win.

Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds

This market is known as Total, Over/Under, or O/U. Here, you have to predict the final goal total at the end of 90 minutes. For example, Arsenal wins 1–2. The final goal total becomes three.

On 7bet, the goal total betting line for this fixture is set at Over/Under 2.5. If you believe Arsenal will keep a clean sheet and not allow Sunderland to score, pick Under 2.5 goals. This bet wins if the total number of goals scored is two or fewer. On the other hand, if you think we’ll see a high-scoring match, pick an Over 2.5 total. This bet wins if more than three goals are scored in the game.

Sunderland averaged 1.0 goals in their last 10 matches, and Arsenal averaged 2.1. This brings their combined average total to 3.1, which is above the 2.5 betting line. Use this data to minimize your risk.

Correct Score Odds

This is a high-paying market but risky because predicting a precise score can be difficult. So, choose only the smallest amount of bet when considering the Sunderland vs Arsenal odds for this bet.
