Knowing how to bet on a soccer match involves knowing the various types of bets available for a match. There are bets considering the complete game, such as the result bets: winner or 1x2, correct score, both goals, draw returns bet, etc.

And this is why we here at bettingsoftware.com want to remind you that there are also the bets aimed at a part of the game only - in the case of football, the first or second half, which every match has.


Football Betting


For a good bet on a soccer match, it is necessary to take into account that many things change over the course of 90 minutes. The behavior of the teams with a zero score is one, and when a goal is scored the situation usually changes: the underdog is forced to look more for the attack, and the forwards usually adopt a defensive posture to exploit the counterattacks with speed.

An expulsion, especially in the first half, can radically change the outlook of the game.


What HT and FT mean in betting


To make things short:

HT stands for Half Time.
FT stands for Full Time.

Half time in a soccer game is the first half, so betting on HT in soccer means betting on the first half. Therefore, betting on FT in football means betting on the complete match, the 90 minutes plus overtime.

But what about the 2nd half?

This betting market can be named simply as 2nd half, or it can appear within the Halftime market, which carries first and second half bets, within the betting site.


How to bet on HT and FT


Since betting on HT implies directing the bet to the 1st half of the match. All the variables of a complete match can also happen in its first half: goals, corners, cards, shots on goal, assists.

The difference, as we who follow soccer for betting purposes know, is that in the first half it is less common to have cards and expulsions, for example. And sometimes the game is tied up, without a goal coming out, forcing the coaches to make substitutions aiming to open the score at halftime.

FT betting means betting on the entire match, that is, the entire Football game.

Some bookmakers call the markets HT and FT the same, but others use 1st half or Half for HT, and Final for FT, or 1st half and 2nd half, or Two halves.


HT/FT


Is HT/FT the same as HT and FT?

To put it simply, No.

HT and FT are separate bets: one bet on HT and another bet on FT, for example.

HT/FT means a combined double bet, for the same game: bet on a given event in the first half + bet on a given event in the entire match.

In other words, to get the HT/FT bet right you have to get the entire combination right, both what was bet on the first half and what was bet on the match as a whole.

The HT/FT betting market is also known as Halftime/Final or 1st Half/2nd Half by some bookmakers.

Hand here we go! We hope this helps you understand a little more about the HT and FT markets, and remember: To make the most of your betting life with no fees, open an account at the best betting software!
