In American football betting, a
moneyline is the simplest form of wager where you bet on which team will win the game outright, regardless of the point spread.
How Moneyline Works
Favorites are shown with minus (-) odds, indicating how much you need to bet to win £100:
- Example: Kansas City Chiefs -150 means bet £150 to win £100
Underdogs are shown with plus (+) odds, indicating how much you win on a £100 bet:
- Example: Detroit Lions +130 means a £100 bet wins £130
Moneyline vs Point Spread
Unlike point spread betting (where teams must win by a certain margin), moneyline only cares about who wins - making it ideal for beginners.
