Betting Sites Running Scared of Fogo Victory

With an estimated 72% chance of winning, the bookies are taking few chances with their 1.38 betting odds about Botafogo triumphing in this Copa Libertadores clash. If you’re looking for an alternative angle, the underdogs LDU Quito are trading at 9.00.

Backing Botafogo -1.25 on the Asian Handicap splits your stake between -1 and -1.5 at 1.86. You need a two-goal margin of victory against LDU for a full payout and there’s money back on half your stake if they win by one.

You can get a similar price whether you’re betting Under or Over 2.5 Goals. A fresh approach might involve siding with a BTTS wager and there’s 1.56 on offer for Both Teams to Score No.

The best football betting sites are on hand to provide lots of choice to bettors. It’s now the case that you can select from hundreds of markets for all of the Copa Libertadores matches.
