October 2004

In this section we introduce some new markets which you can expect to see on the site soon…

Football: Odd and Even Markets for the Premiership (Launch date 16th October)

This new market will accompany every Premiership fixture. Odd or Even Goals will be concerned with the total number of goals scored in a match. For live games it will be turned in-play and managed in the same way as other in-play markets.

Football: Over/Under 2.5 Goals Market (Launch date 16th October)

Betfair customers will now be able to bet on the number of goals in matches in the following leagues: Coca Cola League 1, Italian Serie B, Spanish Liga Segunda, German Bundersliga 2 and Portuguese SuperLiga.

American Football: NFL Teasers (Launch date 10th October)

Teasers are a type of handicap market typically seen in the US where each team has their handicap enhanced by an additional 6 points. Each team is then combined with another to form a double accumulator bet. Generally these sections are offered at fixed odds of 1.87 but with the benefits of the Betfair exchange there should be much better value available.

Special Bets

Coming soon to this arena will be a full range of markets covering the US Presidential Election, Sports Personality of the Year, The X Factor and I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.

As always, if there are any other markets that you would like to see or other sports covered, feel free to email info@betfair.com with your suggestions.
