When betting on a single soccer game you have 2 options, you can gamble with the point spread or you could bet what’s called the money line. Point spread is easy enough to understand; one team is better than the other, so as a handicap they have to give points to the other team. So if SF is playing CLE, SF is the better team, which means they give Cle 7 points. This usually means that the 49ers not only need to win the game, but they must win by 8 points for the ones that bet on them to win. If they just win for, people who bet on CLE win the wager.
The money line gets rid of the points, but won’t cover as much if the better team wins as it will for the underdog. So SF might be -180, which means a $90 wager would return $140 (your bet + $50 gain ). CLE will be +150, so should they win a $100 bet would return $250 (your $100 wager plus $150 profit).
BTW: If you want to use the stage spread most individuals would bet $55 instead of $50. This way when you win, you would make a gain of $50, after the home takes their 10 percent commission.
