Football Rules: Total Match Tackles
Market description: Predict the number of tackles made in a match will be over the number specified.
- Over five (5) tackles = at least six (6) tackles or more
1. Bets are settled on the events that occur in normal time. This includes any injury/stoppage time added on by the match official at the end of normal time.
2. Extra time doesn't count.
3. A tackle is defined as where a player connects with the ball in a challenge and successfully takes the ball away from the player in possession.
4. If a match is postponed, normal postponed match rules apply.
5. If a match is abandoned, normal abandoned match rules apply.
- If a match is abandoned and the over selection has been won in the time played before abandonment, bets placed on that selection in this market will have already won and will be settled as winners.
6. 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.
