What is a bet builder?

A bet builder allows you to combine multiple selections into one bet. This is similar to a standard accumulator bet, but the key difference is that a bet builder involves just one game rather than multiple different matches. A bet builder can be as small as just two legs (e.g. Man United to win and over 4.5 corners) or you can add more selections into your bet builder to produce a longer odds bet. The beauty of a bet builder is that it allows you to bet on exactly what you think will happen in a game. My bet builders usually consist of four or five selections for a strong chance of landing winners at good prices. Our brand new bet builder tool above is the perfect way to find the best value picks for your bet builder.

How do I pick a bet builder?

  • One of the best things about bet builders is that there is always plenty of choice and markets to select from, including;

    - Match Odds - Over/Under Goals - Goalscorer - Cards - Correct Score - Both Teams to Score - Double Chance - Handicaps - Shots - Shots on Target - Fouls - Fouls Drawn - Goalkeeper Saves

  • With so much choice available, you are bound to find a market and type of bet builder that suits your betting style, both in terms of landing winners and increasing your enjoyment of watching a match.

  • My bet builder tool above allows you to make informed decisions when selecting a bet builder. I’ve collected and visualised all the Opta data so that you don't have to! You can see which players are likely to line up directly opposite each other, as well as season averages for fouls, cards, shots, goals, assists, possession and more, all in one convenient place.

  • Any bet builder you place should always be a combination of your strongest betting angles on any one match. Similar to how you’d only place an accumulator bet if you were confident every result would come in, you should think in the same way about your bet builders.

  • It is alway very important to check or even wait for team news before putting on a bet builder. My bet builder tool won’t include any players that aren’t expected to start the match.

  • Most of your favourite markets from traditional football betting will be available in the bet builder format - this should help you play to your strengths.

  • My bet builder tool also includes information on the referee that has been assigned to the fixture. Providing further insight into their tendencies can help you assess the likelihood of cards, fouls, free kicks and penalties - which can all be crucial to finding a winning bet.

  • Keep it fun! The number one rule as a member of Andy’s Bet Club is to make sure you always gamble responsibly and stay in control. The whole idea of my website and club is to help people bet smarter, not more.

Bet Builder Opta FAQs

Can you cash out on a bet builder?

  • I normally use Paddy Power and Betfair for my bet builders and the cash out function is available from them on all bet builder bets. You can cash out to limit losses during a match if your bet builder has not yet settled, and to claim profits if your bet is in a strong position.

Does extra time count in a bet builder?

  • The majority of bet builder markets settle at full time. However, in knockout matches there is usually a ‘to quality’ or ‘to lift the trophy’ market which would continue into extra time and beyond if necessary. Aside from those, unless specified, all bet builder selections will be settled in normal time.

What is Opta?

  • Opta are the statistics company that provide the official data for the Premier League, EFL and many other leagues. Opta are used by football clubs, television channels and many other organisations - including bookmakers. They collect all the data from every game and are one of the most credible sources in the world for doing so. It’s for this reason that we use Opta stats in our bet builder tool above.

What is Opta’s foul definition?

  • Opta deem a foul conceded as ‘an infringement penalised by the referee’. Although, even if a card is brandished soon after, incidents of which an advantage is played do not count as fouls. Also, things like handball, dives and backpasses would not count as fouls drawn but as a foul conceded for the team and players involved.

What is Opta’s shot on target definition?

  • Opta define a shot on target as a clear attempt to score that would have been a goal if not for a goalkeeper save or a last player block by a defender. However, if a player scores unintentionally, it would still count as a shot on target. Blocked shots that are not blocked by the last player between the ball and the goal do not count as a shot on target.

What is Opta’s tackle definition?

  • Opta define a tackle as an incident where a player touches the ball and takes it away from the player who was clearly previously in possession of it. Cutting out a pass by any means is not deemed a tackle.
