La Liga Round16Who is favored to win? According to Bookmaker 2, Real Madrid is the favorite with odds of 1.57. This implies a 64% chance of winning (more likely than not). A £10 bet would return £15.70 if they win (£5.70 profit).
What about Deportivo Alavés? The odds of 5.75 suggest a 17% chance of winning (very unlikely). However, if you bet £10 and they win, you'd get £57.50 back (£47.50 profit) — higher risk, higher reward.
How likely is a draw? Draw odds of 4.00 imply a 25% probability. A £10 bet on a draw would return £40.00 if correct (£30.00 profit).
How to read odds: Lower odds = more likely to happen (but smaller payout). Higher odds = less likely (but bigger payout if correct). Multiply your stake by the odds to calculate your total return.
