The Finnish Cup is the club knockout tournament held by the FA of Finland.  All teams from the Veikkausliiga down through the 7th division, over 350 teams are eligible to participate.  OddsJet compares Finnish Cup betting odds from several reputable online sportsbooks.  This allows OddsJet to display the best odds for every match in the tournament to maximize potential returns for football bettors.  Users can toggle between 1X2 match odds as well as Double Chance odds.  Although a cup competition, these betting markets apply to the match result after 90 minutes of play (full-time), including any stoppage or injury time.  They do not apply to a result after extra time or penalty shoot-out.

This is our International English version of OddsJet for Finnish Cup odds, but if you have visited us from Finland itself, know that we keep a separate list of the best Finland sports betting sites and bonus offers, which is very different from those listed for our international audience. 

Finnish Cup Odds Explained  

1X2 Match Betting

This is the most popular betting market for the Finnish Cup.  Here, one is simply wagering on the full-time result of a given match: 1 – a Home Win, X – a Draw, 2 – an Away win.

Double Chance Betting

This is a variation of typical 1X2 match betting whereby one selects any two of the three possible outcomes: 1,X – Home Win or Draw.  X,2 - Draw or Away Win.  1,2 - Home Win or Away Win.  This allows for a hedging of one’s bet.  In doing so, the odds will be lower than for a typical 1X2 match result odds.

Finnish Cup odds expressed in American, Decimal and Fractional formats

For American odds format, there are two sets of expressions to remember, but both revolve around the figure of $100. First, negative numbers are used when the odds are below even-money and express how much one must wager in order to win a profit of $100.  When one sees a negative number like IFK Mariehamn to win at -245, this means that one would need to stake $245 in order to win a profit of $100, for a total return of $345.  When the odds are above even, American odds format displays a positive figure which expresses how much one will win when $100 is staked.  For example, match odds of +300 for a draw means that a stake of $100 wins $300 in profit for a total return of $400. 

For Decimal odds format, the odds express the full amount that will be returned on your wager including the stake amount.  Simply multiply the odds by the stake. For example, if Haka is listed to win at 1.64, a $100 bet would return a total of $164 including your stake, so the profit is $64.  A draw with decimal odds of 3.40 would return $170 on a bet of $50. 

For Fractional format, the odds express the amount of profit that will be returned on a wager.  So for example, with a bet of $50 and odds of 2/3 (said two-to-three) on Inter Turku to win, one would see a profit of $33.33 ($50 X 2/3) plus the stake for a total return of $83.33.
