Football Strategy

Cards/booking

This is undoubtedly my favorite market, for more than 7 years it is where I have found a higher profitability. I am not discovering anything by confirming that most of the bettors’ money goes to the winner of the match and the over/under markets. That is why this market is not exactly the most tempting for bettors, then being so, bookmakers allocate all their research resources in other markets, leaving this one without a broad analysis and therefore a greater advantage for those who take advantage of this opportunity.

How to bet on Football cards?

Important to consider

  • Each yellow card counts as one (1) card.
  • The red card counts as two (2) cards
  • If a player is cautioned for the first time, then comes back and receives the second yellow card (automatically becomes a red card), this scenario will add up to three (3) cards
  • At the end of the match you should add up the cards and then draw the conclusion if it was over or under
  • Cards shown to substitute players or coaches do not count. Also if the match is already over at the time of the card

It is a fairly simple market to understand, although it has several different sections.

Over/Under cards

In this section, the idea is to bet on the over or under on the cards. The line varies in relation to the competition and the teams involved.

You must add up the total amount of cards and then determine whether or not you have won your bet.

Example: You place a bet on the over 4.5 cards.

At the end of the match you find out that the home team finished with 2 yellow cards and the away team with 1 yellow card and a straight red card. The total would then be: 5 cards, so the bet would be a winner.

Team With More Bookings

There is really not much to explain in this section. It consists of predicting which team will receive more cards during the match.

Player to be Booked

It consists of predicting which player will receive at least one card during the match.
It is important to note that if the player doesn’t start the match, then the bet will be canceled and your money will be refunded.

Red Card in The Match

Do you think at least one team will get a red card? Then you could bet there, even if you think you know which team will get a red card, then you will win even more money. .

Important tips for betting on cards

The Referee of The Match

The referee is the most important factor in analyzing this market. A permissive referee will be more cautious when issuing a card, and will look for more dialogue in some fouls. While another referee will be much stricter, he will seek to control the match and his way will be to caution many players.

Analyzing the referee is essential, and should be the first thing you take into account when betting on cards. Check his record of cards and detect a trend

derbies and important matches

A match in which both teams have nothing at stake is not the same as a decisive match, where all pulses are at the limit, let alone a Derby, where the pride and prestige of a club is at stake.

So it is important that you define the category of the match and determine whether or not there is a lot at stake

Character and temperament of players

It is essential to take the time to analyze the personality of the protagonists. For example; Latin players are much more likely to live Football with intensity and to be more aggressive compared to Asian players, who are a bit calmer.

The personality of the players will give you an indication of what will happen on the field
