Football has 3 possible result outcomes: Home Win (1), Draw (X) and Away Win (2). Double chance means that you can bet on 1X, X2 or 12.
- In the case of 1X, you win if home team wins or match ends up with a draw
- In the case of X2, you win if away team wins or match ends up with a draw
- In the case of 12, you win if there is no draw end to the match
