FAQ
What selections are included in this Celtic vs Hearts Bet Builder?
This Bet Builder combines three separate selections into one bet. The first leg requires at least one goal to be scored during the first half. The second leg requires both Celtic and Hearts to score at least one goal each during the match. The third leg requires the total number of goals scored by both teams to exceed 2.5, meaning at least three goals must be scored in total. All three conditions must be met for the bet to win, which is why the combined odds of 2.71 are higher than any single selection alone.
How are the individual legs settled?
The first half goals leg settles based on the official match clock at 45 minutes. Any goals scored up to and including the 45th minute count towards this selection. The both teams to score leg covers the entire match and requires each team to find the net at least once. The total goals leg also covers the full match and settles once the final whistle sounds. If any single leg fails to be settled as selected, the entire Bet Builder loses, even if the other legs win.
