Football Rules: Half Corners/Half Corners Live


Half Corners

Market description: Predict the number of corners taken in a specified half of a match from:

  • Under 5
  • 5-6
  • Over 6

1. Bets are settled only on the events that occur in the specified half of the match. This includes any injury/stoppage time added on by the match official at the end of the specified half of the match.

2. The other half of the match and extra time don't count unless otherwise stated.

3. A corner awarded but not taken won't count.

4. A corner that's retaken on the instruction of the match official will only count once.

5. If a match is postponed, normal postponed match rules apply.

6. If a match is abandoned, normal abandoned match rules apply.

  • If a match is abandoned during the specified half and seven (7) or more corners are taken in the time played before abandonment, bets placed on that selection will have already won and will be settled as winners. Bets placed on other selections in this market will have already lost.
  • If a match is abandoned during the specified half and six (6) or less corners are taken in the time played before abandonment, bets placed will be void, subject to normal abandoned match rules, because the match didn't play for the full duration.
  • If a match is abandoned after the specified half, bets placed on this market will stand - win or lose.

7. Settlement of all stats markets will be based on data provided by OPTA (Part of the Stats Perform Group).

  • OPTA stats are available here.
  • OPTA may occasionally go back and make amendments to ensure accuracy. We'll settle all markets based on their final decision.
  • Adjustments to the settlement of markets won't be made for changes or adjudications made by governing bodies after the event.
  • OPTA have a long-established list of ‘Event Definitions’ which are adhered to across all of their data collection centres. They can be accessed here.
