Double Chance Betting – Covering Two Outcomes

Double Chance betting lets you cover two of the three possible match results in a 1X2 market:

  • 1X – Home win or draw
  • X2 – Draw or away win
  • 12 – Home win or away win (no draw)

Example of Double Chance

Backing X2 on Wolves v Chelsea means you win if Chelsea avoid defeat — either by winning or drawing.
