How to bet on North Carolina Courage games

Want to get some action on today’s North Carolina Courage game? Flixed has partnerships with the best legal sportsbooks to give you great offers to bet on the North Carolina Courage at BetMGM, DraftKings, WynnBET, and more. See below for the best sportsbook promos in your state to bet on North Carolina Courage moneyline, point spread, total, props and more.

North Carolina Courage Odds

If you open up your favorite sportsbook app (especially BetMGM) to bet on the Courage you’ll see a number of different types of bets you can make. Below you’ll learn about each type of wager so you can make the most information bet on the Courage.

Courage Spread

The point spread, or simply “spread”, is a type of bet that involves the number of points a team is expected to win (or lose) by. Below is an example of a point spread in a North Carolina Courage game.

• Courage -6.5 (-110)
• OL Reign +6.5 (-110)

In this example the Courage is the favorite, meaning they are expected to win the game specifically by 6.5 points. We know half points don’t exist, but in the above example the Courage would need to win by 7 or more points for a bet on them to win. If they win by less than 6 points, the OL Reign will have covered the spread and a bet on them would win. The numbers after the spread are the odds you would get on that bet, in this case -110. That means that if you bet $11 on the Courage and they won by 7, you’d win $10.

Courage Moneyline

A moneyline bet is the simplest bet you can make - it is simply a bet on whichever team you think will win the game outright. Because there is no point spread to handicap the teams to account for differences in quality, the odds on either team will vary more drastically based on how big of a competitive mismatch oddsmakers believe the game is. Below is an example of a Courage moneyline:

• Courage -275
• OL Reign +220

The +/- indicate the favorite and the underdog, similar to with the point spread. In this case the Courage would be considered the favorite to win the game at -275 and the OL Reign would be the underdog at +220. The differences in odds are a reflection of how good the Courage are compared to the OL Reign. In this case, a $27.50 bet on the Courage would only win you $10 if they win the game. Conversely, to win the same $10 betting on the underdog, you’d only need to wager roughly $4.50.

Courage Total (Over/Under)

The total, or over/under (o/u), is a type of bet that is based around the total number of points scored in the game by both teams combined. Below is an example of a total bet in a North Carolina Courage game:

• Courage vs OL Reign Total: 49
  • Over 49 (-110)
  • Under 49 (-110)

A bettor will either bet over or under on the total provided. If you bet the over, the combined score of both teams would need to be greater than 49 points for that bet to win. Conversely, if the total combined points is less than 49, the under would win. If the total lands on exactly 49 points, that is called a push and you would receive your stake back. Again, the -110 are the odds you get on either side of the total, in this case an $11 bet would win you $10.

Courage Prop Bets

Prop, or proposition, bets are types of bets that pertain to a specific player, event, or game statistic. These bets can be over a specific game or the entire season. There are a few different types of prop bets - player props, game props, team props, and novelty props. Below are examples of prop bets in a North Carolina Courage game:

• Courage RB to record over 59.5 rushing yards - Player Prop

This bet is similar to a total in that you can bet the over or the under on the total rushing yards set. In this case, the above wager is that the Running Back for the Courage will rush for 60 yards or more. This is a player prop because it pertains to a specific player’s performance.

• Courage vs OL Reign to combine for over 4.5 touchdowns - Game Prop

This bet again is similar to a total bet in that you can bet the over or the under on the total number of touchdowns set. In this case, the above wager is that both teams will score a combined 5 touchdowns or more in the game. This is a game prop because it pertains to a combined stat for both teams for the duration of the game.

• Courage to score over 22.5 points - Team Prop

Again, we see our familiar format of the total bet where we are able to wager on the over or under of a specific stat or number. In this case, we are betting that the Courage will score 23 or more points in this game, regardless if they win or lose. This is a team prop because it pertains to the performance of only one team and not on the outcome of the game.

• Color of the Gatorade Bath Blue - Novelty Prop

These bets are most popular during major game and championship events like the Super Bowl. In the bet above, we are wagering that the color of the Gatorade dumped on the winning coach to be blue. These bets typically have very low limits, meaning you can’t bet large amounts on them. Other popular novelty props are the length of the national anthem, who the MVP of the game will thank first, the number of times a certain phrase is mentioned during the broadcast, and more.

Want to jump in and start wagering? BetMGM has the best offers on Courage odds and prop bets.
