Standard betting
Most online bookmakers have a variety of bet tipes and lots of daily bets.
1,X,2 - the simple bet, 1 means home win, X means draw and 2 means away win
1X,X2,12 - double chance. 1X means home team wins or draw and so on.
Half Time - you bet on the outcome at half time
Halftime/Fulltime - you bet on the outcome at halftime and at the end of the game
Halftime or Fulltime - to win your prediction must be good at half time or full time
Handicaps - there are 2 different types of handicap bets: standard or asian handicap. When you bet using standard handicap on of the teams has an advantage. For example handicap (0-1) means the game starts with the away team leading by 1 points and you bet on the outcome based on this starting handicap. So the home team must score at least 2 points to win (final score of 2-0 in reality). Asian handicap is different, you can read more about it here. But if you bet on the away team in this case you win if the match is a draw or the away team wins, so it's more like double chance but usually the odds are a bit higher.
Under/Over - you bet on the number of goals. The usual limit is 2.5 goals for football, but it can be different. Example: you bet on under 2.5 goals. You win if there are 0, 1 or 2 goals scored. The .5 limit is used because this way there are only 2 possible outcomes: under or over.
Number of goals - similar to under/over, but with more options: no goals, at least one goal, etc.
Exact Score - you can choose from a list of possible scores.
More goals - you can choose wich part of the game will have more goals (1st or 2nd half, etc)
To score/not to score - quite obvious, you bet on a team to score/not to score
Winning margin - obvious
1st goal to score, Goal scorer - you can bet on the goal scorer (the player), or the first team to score, there are many variations of this type
Booking/Corners - you can bet on the number of yellow/red cards and the number of corners (football). Mostly available in live betting
Outrights/Specials - usually long run bets (who wins a championship, presidential elections, etc.) Unibet offers many different long term bets.
