Super Rugby Odds explained

Match Result Betting (3-way)

Here, one is betting on a Super Rugby match result; a Home Team victory, a draw, or an Away Team victory - there is no handicap. Favorites and underdogs are determined solely by the odds pricing. At some sportsbooks, you may see this presented in a 1X2 format similar to football match betting.

Handicap (3-way)

For Super Rugby, the Handicap betting market is an effort by the odds maker to set prices that are similar for either team to ‘win’. The point handicap essentially means that the match does not start at a score of 0-0. The favoured team must score enough points to overcome this handicap in order to be declared the winner. From the perspective of the underdog, the Handicap may be viewed as a head start on points toward winning the game. For example if the spread is 10 points, the favoured team will need to win by at least 11 points for a bet on them to be considered a winning bet. The underdog can lose the game by as many as 9 points and still be considered to have won the bet. If the actual point differential matches the point handicap, ending in a 10 point favorite win, the match result for betting purposes will be a draw.

OddsJet helps to find the ideal handicap to suit any opinion on any Super Rugby match in addition to the best odds price.

Super Rugby Odds expressed in American, Decimal and Fractional Formats

For American odds format, keep in mind the difference between positive and negative expressions. Odds below even-money are always listed with a negative number. When negative, the odds price expresses how much one needs to wager in order to return a profit of $100. For example, if Highlanders are favoured heavily to win a match, one might see a figure of -266. This means that a stake of $266 is required for a potential profit of $100 for a total potential return of $366. When one sees a positive Super Rugby odds price in American format, the odds are above even-money and express how much profit one might gain with a wager of $100. At +148 on the Crusaders, a winning bet of $100 would return one’s stake plus $148 for a total return of $248. Note that although the American odds format centres on the figure of $100, this is purely for expression and is not a restriction in any way on the amount that may be staked.

For Super Rugby in Decimal odds format, simply multiply the stake amount by the decimal odds price to see the full amount that would be returned on a win including the stake amount. For example, if one wagered $30 on the Brumbies at a price of 1.91, the total return would be $57.30, a profit of $27.30.

For Super Rugby in Fractional odds format, the expressed odds price represents the potential profit return that will be achieved over and above the stake amount. To calculate the potential profit, simply divide the numerator by the denominator, and then multiply this value by the stake amount. For example, a bet of $50 on Western Force at an odds price of 9/7 (said nine-to-seven) could return a profit of $64.29 for a total return of $114.29.
