Football spread betting - player performance
The spread relates to the performance
of an individual player. As play progresses, selected
players are awarded various performance points based
upon particular events.
e.g.
Scoring of goal= +25pts
Assistance in scoring of goal = +10pts
(This would be the setting up of a goal through a cross.
More simply it would be the person who touched the ball
directly prior to the the goalscorer)
Shot on target = +5pts
(This does not include either the posts or the bar.
It includes all attempts on target that require the
goalkeeper to make a save, or results in a defensive
block within the 6-yard box. If a save or block is made
from a shot that is going wide, this is not considered
to be on target.)
Forcing a corner = +3pts
(The last attacking player to touch the ball before
the corner is conceded by the defending team.)
Free kicks won = +3pts
(Including penalties)
Passing to own player in opposition half = +2pts
(A successful pass occurs when the passer gets the ball
to his own player in the opposition half. The pass is
considered successful only if a player from the same
team gets any form of contact on the ball and the pass
must be seen on camera. In the event of a match being
covered by more than one station, Sporting Index will
nominate which coverage will apply before kick-off.)
Free kick conceded = -3pts
(Including penalties, handballs and off-sides)
