How to Bet on Rugby League NRL at BetUS

The NRL (National Rugby League) is one of the top rugby competitions in the world, featuring 17 teams from Australia and New Zealand. The league’s season runs from March to October, culminating in the NRL Grand Final. With its intense and fast-paced matches, betting on the NRL is both exciting and diverse at BetUS.

Types of NRL Bets at BetUS

1. Moneyline: The most straightforward bet, where you simply wager on which team will win the match outright. This is ideal for bettors who want a clear-cut option without worrying about point spreads or totals.
   • Example: Bet on Team A -150 (the favorite) or Team B +130 (the underdog). If Team A wins, you would need to wager $150 to win $100. For Team B, a $100 bet would win you $130.
2. Point Spread: Also called “handicap betting,” this type evens the playing field by assigning a point differential between the teams. The favorite must win by more than the point spread, while the underdog can lose by fewer points or win outright.
   • Example: Team A -5.5 vs Team B +5.5. If you bet on Team A, they must win by 6 points or more. If you bet on Team B, they can either win or lose by 5 points or fewer for your bet to win.
3. Over/Under (Total Points): In this bet, you wager on whether the total number of points scored by both teams will be over or under a set line.
   • Example: If the total is set at 40.5 points, betting the “over” means you predict both teams will combine for 41 points or more. Betting the “under” means you expect fewer than 40 points.
4. First Try Scorer: A prop bet where you wager on which player will score the first try in the match. This is a popular option for those looking for higher payouts and a bit of a riskier bet.
5. Winning Margin: Here, you predict by how many points the winning team will triumph. You can typically choose between ranges like 1-12 points or 13+ points.
6. Futures: Bet on long-term outcomes, such as which team will win the NRL Grand Final, which player will be the top try scorer, or which team will finish the season on top of the ladder.
