Betting on corner kicks in soccer

Let’s deal with this type of betting and outline the path to profit.

Corner kicks, as the statistics show, have little dependence on the status of the teams.

For example, the game between Real Madrid. The clear status of Real Madrid as the favorite in the match does not guarantee multiple advantages in corners. Hence the conclusion: look at the line and find a clearly inflated difference in handicaps on corners (usually handicaps are 1 to 6), on the outsider +4.5 or more is a good choice. Playing on outsiders and large positive handicaps can bring good profits since the favorite of the match does not often “breakthrough” a large negative handicap. This is especially often the case when the match means nothing in terms of the tournament and the team plays with an experimental lineup.

Corner kicks total

To determine the total corner total in matches you need to answer the following questions:

  • 1) Do highly technical teams play (special attention should be paid to defenders in this analysis)? If the players are fast and technical, they will not let the ball go over the line, and will try to knock the ball into touch. Please note, how Chelsea defenders play in this regard – they will lay their knees down, but they will kick the ball into touch! So, if yes, the total is less.
  • 2) Do the teams play the wings? If there are good flank midfielders like Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid) or Garrett Bale (Tottenham, England), there will be a lot of corners. So, the total is to be greater.
  • 3) Do the high forwards play in the offense? They will be the ones to play, so there will be frequent passes to the penalty area, frequent head play and frequent corners. Once again total more.

Interesting corner betting strategies

The fact is that some bookmakers bet in one express on the victory of the team in the match and on its same victory by the number of corners. Quite often such expresses are played for a win. True, with restrictions: we bet on a minus handicap of -1 to -4 on the favorite of the game and on a zero handicap on the same team (victory in the match). An example of an express:

1) Chelsea vs Everton. a1(0) 1.30.

2) Chelsea v Everton. Corner kicks. Ф1(-2.5) 1.85.

Final odds = 2.405.

The 2nd strategy is that bets are placed when the team has just earned a corner. They often come in a series of several in a row, like fox mushrooms in the forest: find one – look for more. Of course, many offices block the acceptance of bets at the moment of the corner, but if you have a prompt video broadcast without time delays, then you can bet just at the moment of the player’s strike. Some betting shops don’t have such prompt live video feeds and will accept your bet. Naturally, we bet on the total more. And you can take the total maximum possible of those that are offered.

Before betting on the corners, you must

  • 1) Carefully study the statistics – the good thing is that now it is in any decent office, and there are many different sites with such information.
  • 2) To get acquainted with the compositions of the playing teams (if possible, watch the start of the match (at least a few minutes) and make a bet during the game).
  • 3) Study the conditions of the game and the degree of motivation. In particular, at high speeds until the last minutes of the match, the chance of earning a corner is much higher. In bad weather conditions (rain, fog, snow) – the same, because it is difficult for the goalkeeper to catch the ball in his hands and he will try to just kick it away.

In short, betting on corner kicks can be actively practiced and make regular profits. Stock up on statistics, up-to-date information and patience – luck will surely visit you in the form of big winnings!
