How to bet on Football


Overview

Whether you're new to betting on Football, or just in need of a refresher, check out our Football Betting Guide and House Rules. See all Super Bowl bets at the DraftKings Sportsbook Super Bowl odds page.

Important: There must be 5 minutes or less of scheduled game time left for bets to have action unless the specific market outcome is already unconditionally determined. In the event a game is halted before the minimum time (55 minutes) has been played, and not completed within 48 hours of the scheduled start date and time, bets will be void, unless the specific market outcome is already determined (unless otherwise stated).

Examples include but are not limited to:

DK Squares

The goal of a Squares bet is to pick a correct “square score” for any end of quarter result. Wagers for this market will be settled on the basis of the end-of-quarter scores (4th Quarter includes OT). For example, the score in the match is 3-7 (end of Q1), 3-21 (End of Q2), 21-21 (End of Q3), 27-24 (End of game) then the winning selections will be 3:7, 3:1, 1:1 and 7:4. Selections cannot win twice, meaning you don’t get paid extra if multiple quarters end on the same combination.
