497 Match Odds – Live Betting on cricket & football
This page covers everything about 497's Match Odds section—which sports you can bet on, how odds work, and how to get started safely using Bangladeshi payment methods.
Key Highlights of the Match Odds Section
Betting odds are a number that reflects both the probability of an outcome and the potential payout. In 497's Match Odds section, you'll find real-time odds for cricket, football, tennis, and several other sports.
Most users in Bangladesh use this section to bet on cricket. Odds for every major event—from international series to domestic leagues—are all available here.
Test, ODI, and T20—odds for all formats of international and domestic cricket in one place. Markets range from Match Winner to Top Batsman and beyond.
Bet on Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, and international tournament matches. Handicap, Over/Under, and Both Teams to Score markets are all available.
Bet on live, constantly shifting odds as the match unfolds. In-play odds update every minute, opening up new opportunities throughout the game.
Combining bets from multiple matches multiplies the odds. The risk increases, but so does the potential reward — for more details, read the Terms & Conditions।
Two Key Concepts to Understand
Having a clear grasp of these two concepts before placing any Match Odds bet makes decision-making much easier.
- Decimal Odds
-
The standard format used on most platforms worldwide. If the odds are 2.50 and you bet ৳100, a win returns ৳250 in total (profit of ৳150).
Example: In a Bangladesh vs Pakistan match, if Bangladesh's odds are 2.30, a ৳100 bet returns ৳230 on a win.
- Handicap Betting
-
A handicap gives the weaker team a head start in runs or goals to level the playing field, bringing the odds for both sides closer together.
Example: With a +1.5 handicap, the underdog starts with a 1.5-wicket or 1.5-goal advantage for betting purposes.
