If your chosen outcome is successful, your bet pays out based on the odds provided by the bookmaker. UK sportsbooks use fractional odds, where the denominator indicates the bet amount, and the numerator is the expected return.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you examine the Chelsea vs Barcelona betting odds in the 1X2 market, the odds are 6\/5 for Chelsea, 7\/4 for FC Barcelona, and 14\/5 for a draw. This means a successful bet on Chelsea will pay \u00a36 for every \u00a35, correctly predicting Barcelona\u2019s win at 7\/4 odds will pay \u00a34 for every \u00a34, and a draw pays \u00a314 for every \u00a35. Stakes on winning bets are also refunded.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bookmakers lower the odds of a stronger team to balance the market, as they are expected to win. So, if the odds are \u201cshort\u201d or low, the team may be considered a favourite in this fixture. If you want to bet on the weaker team, bets such as Double Chance or Handicap are more favourable.<\/span><\/p>\n

2\/5<\/span><\/td>\n	1\/4<\/span><\/td>\n	3\/5<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n Double Chance is a variation of the 1X2 market. Bettors can pick two out of three outcomes simultaneously:<\/span><\/p>\n \n Chelsea or Draw: This bet loses if FC Barcelona wins.<\/span><\/li>\n Chelsea or Barcelona: You lose if the game ends in a draw.<\/span><\/li>\n Draw or Barcelona: This bet loses if Chelsea wins.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Consider this market if you believe we\u2019ll see a tightly contested game on Tuesday, and predicting a result may be difficult. Both teams are strong and have won multiple tournaments in the past five years. In this scenario, Double Chance may be a better option than 1X2 to lower your risk.<\/span><\/p>\n Your probability of winning in Double Chance is higher than 1X2, since you get to pick more options. But this also means that your payout will be lower. Bookmakers lower the odds when the likelihood of a result becomes very high.<\/span><\/p>\n  <\/p>\n Handicap Betting Odds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n Chelsea (-0.25)<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n FC Barcelona (+0.25)<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 20\/21<\/span><\/td>\n 20\/23<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n Chelsea (-0.75)<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n FC Barcelona(+0.75)<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 6\/4<\/span><\/td>\n 1\/2<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n Chelsea (+1.5)<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n FC Barcelona (-1.5)<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 1\/7<\/span><\/td>\n 4\/1<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n A handicap bet is designed to give an advantage to your chosen team and a similar disadvantage to the other team. For example, you award a +1 to FC Barcelona. This means 1 point will be added to their final goal tally. Similarly, 1 point will be taken away from Chelsea. So, if the match ends 2\u20131, the handicap adjusted score will be read as 1\u20132.<\/span><\/p>\n Adding a handicap ensures your chosen team gets a head start. However, it is important to consider the goal difference when selecting a handicap. The bigger the handicap, the bigger the goal margin needs to be for the other team to overcome the gap.<\/span><\/p>\n Here are a few examples of how your bet will pay out with different handicaps:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n \n Chelsea (-0.75) \/ FC Barcelona (+0.75): With this handicap, bets on <\/b>Barcelona win if they win, draw, or lose the match with a one-goal difference. For example, Chelsea wins 2\u20131. Based on the handicap, the final score will be calculated as 1.25\u20131.75, giving a win to bets on Barcelona. Chelsea will be able to overcome the handicap with a two-goal margin win, like 2\u20130 (1.25\u20130.75).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n \n Chelsea (+1.5) \/ FC Barcelona (-1.5): <\/b>This is the opposite scenario, where Chelsea has the advantage. Bets on Chelsea win if they win, draw, or lose by two or fewer goals. A three-goal gap like 0\u20133 will lead to a draw (1.5\u20131.5). Barcelona will need to win the match with a 4-goal difference to overcome the handicap.<\/span><\/li>\n Chelsea (-0.25) \/ FC Barcelona (+0.25): <\/b>This gives an advantage to Barcelona in case of a draw.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n  <\/p>\n Both Teams to Score (BTTS Odds)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n Yes<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n No<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 3\/8<\/span><\/td>\n 19\/10<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n Consider the clean sheets (when the opposition team\u2019s score is zero) for both teams in this market. Chelsea kept four clean sheets in their last 10 matches, while Barcelona kept none. In their head-to-head UEFA matches, Chelsea kept one clean sheet.<\/span><\/p>\n These statistics will help you decide how to pick the Chelsea vs Barcelona odds in this market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Choose BTTS \u201cYes\u201d if you believe that the score will be at least 1\u20131 or higher, meaning both teams will score at least once. Choose the \u201cNo\u201d bet if you think either one or both teams will keep a clean sheet on Tuesday.<\/span><\/p>\n  <\/p>\n Goal Total (Over\/Under) Odds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n Over 3.5<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n Under 3.5<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 20\/21<\/span><\/td>\n 4\/5<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n Chelsea averaged 2.3 goals in their last 10 matches. Barcelona averaged 2.6 goals in the same period. This brings their average combined goal total to 4.9. Use this data when considering the Chelsea vs Barcelona odds in the Over\/Under market.<\/span><\/p>\n For this fixture, the default betting line is set at Over\/Under 3.5. An Over 3.5 bet pays if the combined goal total is four goals or higher. An Under 3.5 bet pays if the combined goal total is three or lower. For example, scores like 2\u20132, 3\u20131, 3\u20132, etc., will pay out for the Over 3.5 bet. Similarly, scores like 1\u20132, 0\u20130, 2\u20130, 0\u20133 will pay out for an Under 3.5 bet.<\/span><\/p>\n  <\/p>\n Correct Score Odds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Chelsea vs FC Barcelona\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Correct Score Bet<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n Odds<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 0\u20130<\/span><\/td>\n 25\/1<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 1\u20130<\/span><\/td>\n 14\/1<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 1\u20131<\/span><\/td>\n 7\/1<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 0\u20131<\/span><\/td>\n 16\/1<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 2\u20130<\/span><\/td>\n 15\/1<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 0\u20132<\/span><\/td>\n 20\/1<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n 2\u20132<\/span><\/td>\n 9\/1<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n In the Correct Score market, bettors need to predict the precise final score. This can be a difficult market to bet on as it involves risk and guesswork. However, if your analysis is correct, you stand to win a lot. For example, predicting a precise 1\u20130 win for Chelsea pays \u00a314 for every pound, and predicting a correct 0\u20131 win for Barcelona pays \u00a316 for every pound. These are just a few examples of possible scores. You can adjust the betting line between 0 and +5 goals for both teams on our page as per your analysis.<\/span><\/p>\n Betting is only available to participants above 18 years.
