Example of a Card Betting Tip

Our team might look at a Liverpool vs Everton game being played and decide that there is good card betting value. From there we'll look at the prior stats to find the players that we believe have a good chance of getting a card.

Let's say for this example that we selected Liverpools 'Fabinho' who we had identified as a player with a history of receiving yellow cards vs Everton in the past. We would then go to the Liverpool vs Everton game on our chosen bookmaker and find the tab or drop-down for 'Player Cards'.

We would now scroll through the list and click 'Fabinho to receive a yellow card at a price of 7/2' which would add the selection to our betslip.

If we wanted to do a cards double bet, we could choose another player from this game or a different match using the same method as above.

Once the selection (or selections) are in your bet slip simply choose your desired stake and place your card bet!

Your selection will only win if all of the players within your bet receive a yellow OR red card.
