    if you don't think it's going to be a tie go for it. Both are evenly matched though IMO.

    Are you serious? I think maybe you should stay away from soccer betting

    Haha, love it. Every day a thread like this pops up.

    How difficult can a 3way bet be? I mean even in all the US sports you can bet the draw.

    how do you think bookmakers make their money in soccer? the price of a PK (push if it's a draw) is much worse than the ML, the ML means it's a MUST WIN for the team you're backing.

    In a PK if the game ends in a draw you get your wager back. in -0.5 you lose if its a tie.

    3 way money line on the favourite and -0.5 are same.
