Alongside backing who you think will be the overall top goal scorer in the tournament, you can also bet on who will be the top scorer for an individual nation, and bookmakers will price up every nation before the World Cup begins. This can often be a great market to look at for numerous reasons, and it works in exactly the same way as the outright market, but only includes players from the team you are betting on.<\/p>\n

One way of using this market and giving yourself an interest in a lot of games is to back multiples on this market. For example, if you pick out four players that you think will do well then you could place a Yankee on these four players, giving you a big interest for a small stake. Should all four of your players finish as their team\u2019s top scorer, then you are going to have a huge payout from this bet.<\/p>\n

Cover Bet for Tournament Top Scorer<\/h3>\n

This market is great to place a cover bet if you have backed someone to be the top tournament goal scorer. Backing them to be their team\u2019s top scorer will be at shorter odds, but if they do that and just fail to be the top tournament goalscorer then you will have covered your bet on that. One of the advantages of using this market is that if your team is eliminated early you may still win, as the players will all play the same amount of games.<\/p>\n

Look out for Set Piece Takers in Low Scoring Teams<\/h3>\n

If you think a team is going to struggle and only score a couple of goals then you can use this prediction to your advantage with this market. If a team has a set piece taker that is not an attacker, you can back them at a big price to be their top scorer because the strikers are pretty much always the favourites on this market. If you think they are only going to score two goals in the entire tournament, there is a good chance that one of those could come from a free kick or penalty, which would give your player a chance to win on this market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Betting on both the tournament top goal scorer and each individual team\u2019s top goal scorer is a great way to get involved in the tournament, and for small stakes, you could win a large amount of money if you strike lucky. Here is a guide on how to use them and what they can offer you during the tournament.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":128,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rank_math_lock_modified_date":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[111,115],"class_list":["post-127","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-beginners","tag-football","tag-world-cup","entry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/127"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=127"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/127\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":129,"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/127\/revisions\/129"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/128"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=127"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=127"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stakehunters.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
