There are many types of bets in soccer beyond the standard moneyline and point spread. Some of the popular options:

•Over/Under - Betting on whether the total combined score of both teams will be over or under a set number. For example, over/under 2.5 goals.

•First Half / Live Betting - Betting on the outcome of just the first half, or specific moments during live play. The odds change frequently based on the flow of the match.

•Correct Score - Predicting the exact final score, e.g. selecting 2-1. This is difficult but can be very rewarding.

•Halftime / Fulltime - Predicting the scores at halftime and fulltime, e.g. Team A leading at half, Team B winning outright.

•Cards - Betting on whether a specific player will get shown a yellow or red card. Or the total number of cards in the match.

•Corners - Betting on the total number of corner kicks in the game over/under a line.

•Proposition Bets - Nuanced bets on occurrences like shots on goal, saves, fouls committed, offside calls, and many more. Lots of opportunities for action!

•Asian Handicaps - Similar to point spreads but listed as whole numbers, fractions and decimals to avoid pushes. Bets have a slightly different payout structure.

•Tournament Bets - Bracket bets, group stage betting, player awards, and more during tournaments, leagues, cups, etc. The possibilities are vast!
 
Among all the football betting strategies mentioned above, the most dreadful among them is the correct score strategy. I wonder how some bettors are specialists on this type of strategy. How possible it is to predict the exact outcomes of a match. I can't deny the facts that some bettors made monies in this, but the way they are able to succeed in this strategy is what baffles me.
