For example, a prop bet may include: “Which team will score the first goal?” or “How many shots on goal will Team A get?”. These bets also include odds, for example for the team that scores first goal, Team A may get (-180) while Team B (+150). Some times you will find odds at (+100) for both teams, but it is very rare.
