The world is gripped by Belarusian soccer fever and we've given you our parlay for Sunday morning's games.
3-Leg Parlay Odds +2490: Turn $50 into $1295!
07:00 EST - Energetik-BGU Minsk v FC Minsk - Over 2.5 Goals @ -133
- These two are both unbeaten and finished 12th and 9th in the league last season respecitvely. They've had 4 games so far this season, with a combined 14 goals in them. Minsk have scored 6 in 2 games and Energetik have scored 4, so expect goals.
09:00 EST - Vitebsk v FC Smolevichi-STI - FC Smolevichi-STI to win @ +200
- Vitebsk won their only home game of the season but they're historically poor at home, winning only 2 of their last 10. Newly promoted Smolevichi started the season with an away draw at the Champions, followed by a narrow loss against Isloch who finished 5th last year. Now facing Vitebsk who finished 13th in 2019 there's a good chance they steal a win, which looks like value at +200.
11:00 EST - Isloch v Slutsk - Isloch to win 1-0 @ +400
- Isloch have cruised to two 1-0 victories in their opening games this season and they are a great price to do so again, with a home game against a team they finished 6 places higher than in 2019.
So, what is a parlay?
A parlay is a single bet that relies on winning two or more wagers and is used to generate larger potential payouts for bettors. Parlays allow you to combine moneyline bets, prop bets, spread bets and pretty much anything else you can think of from different games in order to substantially increase your odds and give you a high-risk, high-reward chance at winning big.
How many selections need to win in order for me to win my parlay bet?
In short, all of them, but there are a few exceptions. A parlay bet is counted as a winner if none of the wagers lose, so there are circumstances like game cancelations/postponements and pushes that can result in an adjustment of odds instead of a loss. For instance, if you have a five-team parlay and three of the bets cover but two of them push, your parlay bet won’t be counted as a loss, your odds will just readjust to reflect a three-team parlay between your three winning bets. However, the second one of your teams don’t cover, the entire bet is counted as a loser.
How do I place a parlay bet?
Parlays are a popular wager type among bettors, and most sportsbooks have recognized this and made it easy for users to create their own.
As you navigate through a sportsbook and add different wagers to your betslip, you’ll usually be given two different options for how you can bet. The first is to bet all your different selections as independent straight bets.
However, sportsbooks also give you the option to parlay all four of those bets together, taking your potential profit and increasing it based on the amount of wagers in the parlay and their individual odds. If you took those same four wagers and combined them into a four-leg, $40 parlay, you’d increase your potential profit to $342.78.
Obviously, your odds of winning a bet decrease substantially when you make a win dependent on hitting all your wagers, but parlay bet payouts can often be substantial enough to entice bettors to take the risk.
