Paddy Power’s Super Sub feature keeps your bet alive until the final whistle. 

🆕 This game-changing betting feature is now available on 1+, 2+, and 3+ markets, your bet continues if your chosen player is subbed off and the oncoming player picks up where they left off.

For example, if you back Saka to be fouled 2+ times and he's fouled once and is then subbed off - the player coming on will only need to be fouled once to land the 2+ bet.

🔄 What Is Paddy Power Super Sub?

If you place a bet on any of the betting options (below) and the player you have selected gets subbed off, the player coming on automatically takes over to fulfil the bet. 

Currently, Super Sub is only available on 1+, 2+ and 3+ selections.

1+ Market Example: You bet on Darwin Nunez to have a shot on target and he is substituted and replaced by Cody Gakpo without having a shot on target. If Gakpo goes on to have a shot on target, your bet will be a winner. 

2+/3+ Market Example: You bet on Darwin Nunez to have 3+ shots on target and he has 2+ shots on target and is then substituted and replaced by Cody Gakpo, then Gakpo will need to have just 1+ shot on target for the bet to be a winner.

🚂 Paddy Power Super Sub Example - Man United v Porto  

Andy Robson is well-known for his signature Train Bets, and recently he hit a £100 - £160 bet as part of a £500 challenge.

The first leg 'Man United Goalkeeper to Make 2 or More Saves', comfortably came through before the 20-minute mark. This left only Joao Mario to commit a foul to secure the £160.

Mario was subbed off in the 77th minute for Denis Gul. On other bookmakers, this would have ended the bet, but thanks to Paddy Power's Super Sub feature, the bet continued with the substitute. Grul committed a foul late in injury time to win the bet.

📈 Why Use Super Sub In Your Bet Builders? 

Paddy Power’s Super Sub feature is more favourable when backing attacking players because strikers, on average, are expected to play the full match just 35% of the time, which has dropped from 57%. 

But the Super Sub feature improves the probability for players across the park too.

There has been a 13% drop in starters completing full games, now only 61% of players complete full 90 mins.

The introduction of 5 subs per game means that when betting on attacking player prop markets like goals, shots on target and assists customers get less value. Super Sub changes this by allowing your bet to continue.

❓How To Use Super Sub In Your Bet Builders

When creating your Bet Builders make sure to give some attention to the player you choose and their average minutes and look for who would usually come on if they were to be subbed. 

This gives you a second bite at the cherry. There’s nothing worse than a losing bet thanks to a substitution, especially when all the other selections have hit. Here’s an example from a follower:

When Andy’s Bet Club posts our Bet Builder predictions we’ll provide research around average minutes played and who key players are likely to be subbed off for.

⭐ Andy’s Bet Club Review 

This changes the way punters will choose their Bet Builders. The value of each selection is improved. 

Previously, should one of your Bet Builder legs fail due to the player being subbed off it would mean the end of your bet. Now the bet continues.  

Punters can be smart in the way they choose players in their Bet Builder by gaining knowledge on minutes played and most likely to be subbed off/on.
