If you’re a parlay type bettor and like to bet the total and side of a game, here’s what I tell my clients. If you bet on the Favorite, take the OVER, if you like the UNDERDOG, take the UNDER. The logic behind this theory is simple.
For example; let’s say a team is favored by 7 points or more and the OVER is 44.5, all you need is for the underdog to get up ahead or stay in the game as long as they can, because the favorite is more likely to catch up and put up some points on the board to cover your over. As for the dog, if they can keep the favorite off the board, your percentage of the UNDER and dog covering is in your favor.
