<\/div>

Double Chance is a football betting market that allows you to cover two of the three possible match results with one selection. Instead of choosing only a home win, draw or away win, you can combine two of these outcomes.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are three Double Chance selections: <\/span>1X means Home or Draw, X2 means Draw or Away, and 12 means Home or Away<\/b>. Your bet wins if either of the two outcomes included in your selection occurs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Double Chance is one of several ways to bet<\/a> on the result of a football match. If you are new to the sport and want to explore match results, goals and other common markets, our <\/span>How to Bet on Football<\/b><\/a> guide provides a broader introduction to football betting<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Does Double Chance Mean in Betting?<\/b><\/h2>\n

To understand Double Chance, it helps to know how a standard football match result market is displayed.<\/span><\/p>\n

The three possible results are:<\/span><\/p>\n

1 \u2013 Home win<\/span>
\n<\/span>X \u2013 Draw<\/span>
\n<\/span>2 \u2013 Away win<\/span><\/p>\n

Double Chance combines two of these outcomes:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Double Chance<\/b><\/td>\nOutcomes covered<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
1X<\/span><\/td>\nHome win or Draw<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
X2<\/span><\/td>\nDraw or Away win<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
12<\/span><\/td>\nHome win or Away win<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

This means each Double Chance selection can win with two possible match results. The remaining third result causes the bet to lose.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the 1, X and 2 terminology is unfamiliar, our guide to <\/span>What does 1X2 mean in betting?<\/b><\/a> explains how the standard Home, Draw and Away match result market works.<\/span><\/p>\n

How Does Double Chance Betting Work?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Imagine Team A is playing Team B, with Team A at home.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you select 1X, your bet covers Team A to win or the match to finish as a draw.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you select X2, your bet covers the draw or Team B to win.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you select 12, your bet covers either Team A or Team B to win, meaning a draw is the only losing outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, suppose Team A wins 2-1. Both 1X and 12 would be successful, while X2 would lose.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the match finishes 1-1, 1X and X2 would win, while 12 would lose.<\/span><\/p>\n

If Team B wins 2-0, X2 and 12 would win, while 1X would lose.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Does 1X Mean in Double Chance Betting?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The 1X Double Chance selection covers a home win or a draw.<\/span><\/p>\n

In other words, the home team needs to avoid defeat for the bet to win.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example:<\/span><\/p>\n

Team A wins 2-0 \u2013 1X wins<\/span>
\n<\/span>Match finishes 1-1 \u2013 1X wins<\/span>
\n<\/span>Team B wins 2-1 \u2013 1X loses<\/span><\/p>\n

Unlike a standard home-win bet, the home team does not necessarily have to win for 1X to be successful. A draw is also a winning result.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the bet can still lose. If the away team wins, the 1X selection is unsuccessful.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Does X2 Mean in Double Chance Betting?<\/b><\/h2>\n

X2 covers a draw or an away win.<\/span><\/p>\n

This means the away team needs to avoid defeat for the selection to win.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example:<\/span><\/p>\n

Team B wins 2-1 \u2013 X2 wins<\/span>
\n<\/span>Match finishes 0-0 \u2013 X2 wins<\/span>
\n<\/span>Team A wins 3-1 \u2013 X2 loses<\/span><\/p>\n

The X represents the draw and the 2 represents the away team. If either of these results occurs, X2 wins.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the home team wins, X2 loses.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Does 12 Mean in Double Chance Betting?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The 12 selection covers a home win or an away win. The only result it does not cover is a draw.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example:<\/span><\/p>\n

Team A wins 3-0 \u2013 12 wins<\/span>
\n<\/span>Team B wins 2-1 \u2013 12 wins<\/span>
\n<\/span>Match finishes 2-2 \u2013 12 loses<\/span><\/p>\n

An important point for beginners is that <\/span>12 does not mean a score of 1-2<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The numbers refer to the standard 1X2 outcomes. The 1 represents the home team and the 2 represents the away team, so 12 means either the home or away team must win.<\/span><\/p>\n

Double Chance Betting Examples<\/b><\/h2>\n

The easiest way to compare the three Double Chance options is to look at what happens with each possible match result.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Match result<\/b><\/td>\n1X<\/b><\/td>\nX2<\/b><\/td>\n12<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Home win<\/span><\/td>\nWin<\/span><\/td>\nLose<\/span><\/td>\nWin<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Draw<\/span><\/td>\nWin<\/span><\/td>\nWin<\/span><\/td>\nLose<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Away win<\/span><\/td>\nLose<\/span><\/td>\nWin<\/span><\/td>\nWin<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Every Double Chance selection therefore covers two outcomes and excludes one.<\/span><\/p>\n

For 1X, the excluded result is an away win. For X2, it is a home win. For 12, it is a draw.<\/span><\/p>\n

Double Chance vs 1X2 Betting<\/b><\/h2>\n

The main difference between Double Chance and 1X2 betting is the number of match outcomes covered by one selection.<\/span><\/p>\n

A standard 1X2 bet covers one outcome:<\/span><\/p>\n

1 \u2013 Home<\/span>
\n<\/span>X \u2013 Draw<\/span>
\n<\/span>2 \u2013 Away<\/span><\/p>\n

Double Chance covers two:<\/span><\/p>\n

1X \u2013 Home or Draw<\/span>
\n<\/span>X2 \u2013 Draw or Away<\/span>
\n<\/span>12 \u2013 Home or Away<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, suppose you believe the home team will perform well. You could back 1 in the standard match result market, in which case only a home victory would win the bet.<\/span><\/p>\n

Alternatively, 1X would cover both a home victory and a draw.<\/span><\/p>\n

These different settlement conditions also mean the markets have different betting odds.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why Are Double Chance Odds Usually Shorter?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Double Chance prices will typically be shorter than the corresponding odds for one individual match result because two possible outcomes can satisfy the selection.<\/span><\/p>\n

Imagine the home team is available at decimal odds of 2.50 in the standard match result market. A 1X selection covering both the home team and the draw would typically have shorter odds because either of those results can make the Double Chance bet successful.<\/span><\/p>\n

This does not mean the Double Chance selection is guaranteed to win. There is still one match outcome that causes the wager to lose.<\/span><\/p>\n

For 1X, that is an away win. For X2, it is a home win. For 12, it is a draw.<\/span><\/p>\n

Double Chance vs Draw No Bet<\/b><\/h2>\n

Double Chance and Draw No Bet can appear similar because both can be used when considering the possibility of a draw. However, they settle a drawn match differently.<\/span><\/p>\n

Suppose you are interested in backing the home team.<\/span><\/p>\n

With 1X Double Chance:<\/span><\/p>\n

Home win \u2013 Bet wins<\/span>
\n<\/span>Draw \u2013 Bet wins<\/span>
\n<\/span>Away win \u2013 Bet loses<\/span><\/p>\n

With Home Draw No Bet:<\/span><\/p>\n

Home win \u2013 Bet wins<\/span>
\n<\/span>Draw \u2013 Stake generally returned<\/span>
\n<\/span>Away win \u2013 Bet loses<\/span><\/p>\n

The key distinction is the draw. With 1X, the draw is one of the two winning outcomes. With Draw No Bet, a draw generally causes the wager to be void and the original stake to be returned.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our guide to <\/span>What does Draw No Bet mean?<\/b><\/a> explains this market in more detail, including what happens to your stake when the match finishes level.<\/span><\/p>\n

Double Chance vs Handicap Betting<\/b><\/h2>\n

Double Chance and handicap betting are also different types of football markets.<\/span><\/p>\n

Double Chance combines two of the standard home, draw and away outcomes. No goals are added to or removed from the result for settlement purposes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Handicap betting instead applies a theoretical advantage or disadvantage to a team before determining the betting result.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, a team might be given a +1 handicap or a -1 handicap. The adjusted score is then used to settle the relevant handicap market.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want to understand how these adjustments work, our guide to <\/span>What is handicap betting?<\/b><\/a> provides examples of positive and negative handicaps in football and other sports.<\/span><\/p>\n

Does Double Chance Include Extra Time?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Standard football Double Chance markets are commonly settled using the result after 90 minutes plus stoppage time unless the market specifically states otherwise.<\/span><\/p>\n

Consider a knockout match that is level at 1-1 after 90 minutes before the home team wins 2-1 in extra time.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the Double Chance market is based on the 90-minute result, the relevant outcome is a draw.<\/span><\/p>\n

That would mean:<\/span><\/p>\n

1X \u2013 Win<\/span>
\n<\/span>X2 \u2013 Win<\/span>
\n<\/span>12 \u2013 Lose<\/span><\/p>\n

The subsequent extra-time result would not change the settlement of a standard 90-minute market.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, market conditions can vary, so always check which period is being used for settlement before placing the bet.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can You Use Double Chance in an Accumulator?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Double Chance selections may be available for inclusion in accumulators.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, an accumulator might contain:<\/span><\/p>\n

Match 1 \u2013 1X<\/span>
\n<\/span>Match 2 \u2013 X2<\/span>
\n<\/span>Match 3 \u2013 12<\/span><\/p>\n

For a standard accumulator to win, all three Double Chance selections would generally need to be successful.<\/span><\/p>\n

If Match 1 finishes with a home win, Match 2 finishes as a draw and Match 3 has an away winner, all three selections have met their required conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n

If one of the required selections loses, the standard accumulator will generally lose as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can You Use Double Chance in a Bet Builder?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Double Chance selections may also be available within some Bet Builder combinations, depending on the event and compatible markets offered.<\/span><\/p>\n

A Bet Builder combines several compatible selections relating to the same sporting event. For example, it could combine a match-result-related selection with a goals or player market where that combination is available.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not every selection can necessarily be combined, so check the available options and complete bet slip at NetBet Sport before confirming a Bet Builder.<\/span><\/p>\n

Double Chance Betting Example with Odds<\/b><\/h2>\n

Suppose a fictional football match has the following illustrative Double Chance odds:<\/span><\/p>\n

1X \u2013 1.30<\/span>
\n<\/span>X2 \u2013 1.70<\/span>
\n<\/span>12 \u2013 1.25<\/span><\/p>\n

You place \u00a310 on X2 at decimal odds of 1.70.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the match finishes as a draw or the away team wins, the potential total return would be:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a310 \u00d7 1.70 = \u00a317<\/span><\/p>\n

This includes the \u00a310 original stake, giving a potential profit of \u00a37.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the home team wins, X2 loses and the \u00a310 stake is lost.<\/span><\/p>\n

The actual odds available will depend on the teams, event and market.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Does a Double Chance Bet Lose?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Each Double Chance selection has one losing outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n

1X loses if the away team wins.<\/b><\/p>\n

X2 loses if the home team wins.<\/b><\/p>\n

12 loses if the match is drawn.<\/b><\/p>\n

Remembering these three rules makes Double Chance markets relatively straightforward to read.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although each selection covers two possible results, there is always a third outcome that is not covered.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to Read Double Chance Markets at NetBet Sport<\/b><\/h2>\n

When viewing a Double Chance market at NetBet Sport, you may see the three combinations listed as 1X, X2 and 12 alongside their respective odds.<\/span><\/p>\n

Remember:<\/span><\/p>\n

1 = Home<\/span>
\n<\/span>X = Draw<\/span>
\n<\/span>2 = Away<\/span><\/p>\n

From there, the combinations become easier to understand:<\/span><\/p>\n

1X = Home or Draw<\/span>
\n<\/span>X2 = Draw or Away<\/span>
\n<\/span>12 = Home or Away<\/span><\/p>\n

Check the order of the teams, your chosen combination, the odds and your stake before adding or confirming the selection.<\/span><\/p>\n

What to Check Before Placing a Double Chance Bet<\/b><\/h2>\n

Before placing a Double Chance bet, make sure you know which team is at home and which is away. This is essential because the numbers 1 and 2 refer directly to the fixture order.<\/span><\/p>\n

You should also check which two outcomes your selection covers, the available odds, your stake and the potential return.<\/span><\/p>\n

For football matches that could continue into extra time, check which period determines settlement. The standard market may use the 90-minute result even when the fixture itself continues.<\/span><\/p>\n

Covering two possible outcomes does not guarantee that a Double Chance bet will win. There is still one result that causes each selection to lose.<\/span><\/p>\n

Understanding Double Chance Betting<\/b><\/h2>\n

Double Chance betting allows two of the three standard football match results to be covered with a single selection.<\/span><\/p>\n

The three combinations are:<\/span><\/p>\n

1X = Home or Draw<\/b><\/p>\n

X2 = Draw or Away<\/b><\/p>\n

12 = Home or Away<\/b><\/p>\n

The main difference from standard 1X2 betting is that Double Chance covers two outcomes instead of one. It also differs from Draw No Bet because a covered draw is a winning result with 1X or X2, rather than generally causing the original stake to be returned.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once you understand these markets, you can explore how they fit alongside other football betting options using our <\/span>How to Bet on Football<\/b><\/a> guide.<\/span><\/p>\n

When betting at NetBet Sport, check the market, selection, odds and settlement conditions before placing your wager. Football results remain uncertain, so only bet what you can afford to lose.<\/span><\/p>\n

Double Chance Betting FAQs<\/b><\/h2>\n

What does 1X mean in betting?<\/b><\/h3>\n

1X means Home or Draw. The Double Chance bet wins if the home team wins or the match finishes level. It loses if the away team wins.<\/span><\/p>\n

What does X2 mean in betting?<\/b><\/h3>\n

X2 means Draw or Away. The bet wins if the match is drawn or the away team wins. It loses if the home team wins.<\/span><\/p>\n

What does 12 mean in betting?<\/b><\/h3>\n

12 means Home or Away. The selection wins if either team wins and loses if the match finishes as a draw. The numbers refer to the 1X2 outcomes and do not represent a 1-2 scoreline.<\/span><\/p>\n
