European Rugby Champions Cup Rugby Union odds explained

Match Result Betting (3-way)

Here, one is betting on a Champions Cup 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 the European Champions Cup, the point handicap is an effort by the odds maker to offer odds prices that are similar for a bet on either team to win.  A point handicap means that for betting purposes, the game 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 4 points, the favoured team will need to win by 5 points for a bet on them to be considered a winning bet.  The underdog can lose the game by as many as 3 points and still be declared the winner with regard to the bet.  If the favorite wins by exactly 4 points, the ‘Draw’ result will be the winning outcome for the purposes of the wager. 

OddsJet helps to find the ideal handicap to suit any opinion on any Champions Cup match in addition to the best odds price.  Click the ‘+’ button associated with a given match on the events schedule and a window will open that displays all the different handicaps in order from all our sportsbook companies.

European Rugby Champions Cup 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 a club is favoured to win a match, one might see a figure of -218.  This means that a stake of €218 is required for a potential profit of €100 for a total potential return of €318.  When one sees a positive odds price in American format, the odds shall pay above even-money and express how much profit one might gain with a wager of €100.  At +136, a winning bet of €100 would return one’s stake plus €136 for a total return of €236.  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 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 €25 at a price of 1.65, the total return would be €41.25, a profit of €16.25. 

Fractional odds format express odds for 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 at an odds price of 7/5 (said seven-to-five) could return a profit of €70 for a total return of €120.
