To Score In The First Half
Market description: Select a player to score during the first half of a match.
1. Bets are settled on the events that occur in normal time.
- This includes injury time added on by the match official at the end of the first half.
2. Own goals don’t count towards settlement of this market.
3. If the selected player doesn't start the match and enters the field of play at any time, bets placed on that player in this market will stand.
4. If the selected player leaves the field of play without scoring, bets placed on that player in this market will have lost and will be settled as losers.
5. If the selected player takes no part in the first half, bets placed on that player in this market will be void.
6. If a match is postponed, normal postponed match rules apply.
7. If a match is abandoned, normal abandoned match rules apply.
- If a match is abandoned during the first half and the selected player has scored a goal in the time played before abandonment, bets placed on that selection in this market will have already won and will be settled as winners.
- If a match is abandoned in the first half and the selected player has left the field of play without scoring a goal in the time played before abandonment, bets placed on that player in this market will have already lost.
- If a match is abandoned and the selected player is still on the field of play and has not scored a goal at the time of abandonment, bets placed on that player in this market will be void, subject to normal abandoned match rules, because the match didn't play for the full duration.
8. 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.
