FAQ
What is included in this Bet Builder for Preston vs Southampton?
This Bet Builder combines three selections from the Preston vs Southampton match into a single wager. The three legs are: Southampton to win the match, Over 2.5 Goals meaning three or more goals must be scored in the game, and Both Teams to Score meaning both Preston and Southampton must find the net at least once. All three legs need to come in for the bet to win. The combined odds for this Bet Builder are 7.16.
How does each leg of this Bet Builder get settled?
Each leg is settled independently based on the final result of the 90 minutes of play, including any added time but not extra time or a penalty shootout. Southampton to win is settled on the full-time result. Over 2.5 Goals requires a minimum of three goals to be scored across the whole match, regardless of which team scores them. Both Teams to Score requires Preston to score at least one goal and Southampton to score at least one goal during the 90 minutes. If any one of the three legs fails, the entire Bet Builder is lost.
Where can I place this Bet Builder?
Most major licensed bookmakers in the United Kingdom offer a Bet Builder feature that allows you to combine selections from the same match. You can look for Preston vs Southampton in the match listings and add Southampton to win, Over 2.5 Goals, and Both Teams to Score to your Bet Builder slip.

Always make sure you are using a bookmaker that holds a valid licence from the UK Gambling Commission.
