The Campeonato Brasileiro Serie D, is the fourth-tier league in the Brazilian football system. It is a sixty-four-team competition in which teams are grouped into 8 groups, and the overall semifinalists qualify for the third-tier Campeonato Brasileiro Serie C.

Most importantly the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie D presents a huge number of betting opportunities and here you can learn about the most popular types of bet you can place.

Popular Campeonato Brasileiro Serie C Bets

Outright Bets

In the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie D, an outright bet is a bet for the title champions for that season. Bets are placed before the season begins or when it is underway. An example would be betting on Amazonas to win the league. You may also be able to place bets on which teams will be promoted to the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie B.

Match Result Bet

The most popular bet is on the winner of individual games. You can bet on which team will win a game or if it will end in a draw. For example, if Caldense are playing Real Noroeste, then you can bet on either of the teams to win or a tie.

Double Chance Bet

A Double Chance bet covers two of the three possible outcomes of a game and removes the possibility of a draw. For example, if Sousa were playing Icasa, you could place a double chance bet on Sousa to win or the game to end in a draw, a bet on Icasa to win or the game to end in a draw, or a bet on either of the teams to win.

Total Goals Bet

This bet is on the total number of goals scored in a game. A number is provided and you bet on whether the total number of goals will be over or under that number. For example, if Sergipe were playing CSE, you could be on there to be over or under 2.5 goals, which effectively means 3 or more goals, or 2 goals at most.

Goal Handicap Bet

The idea behind handicap bets is to lengthen the odds on the favorite team. This is done by assigning them a goal handicap that they then need to overcome. For example, if Pouso Alegre is playing Bahia de Feira, you could bet on Pouso Alegre to win with a handicap of -1.5. This means that the bet will only win if the team wins by at least 2 goals. It is also possible to give a team a positive handicap and that way shorten the odds on them winning.

Player & Game Props Bet

If you are looking to bet on something other than which team will win, then player and game prop bets are an excellent option. Player prop bets are on player achievements in a game, for instance whether the Amazonas player Rafael Tavares will score or be named man of a match. You can also be on the number of corners, fouls and free kicks in a game, the number of substitutions, and far more.

Draw no Bet

This type of bet removes the risk of losing your money to a draw. For example, if Santa Cruz were playing Sergipe, you could bet on one of the teams to win and if the game did end in a draw, then you would receive your money back.

Live Bets

You can make watching a Campeonato Brasilerio Serie D game even more exciting with live betting. It allows you to bet on a game as it is taking place, so you can assess the teams before risking your money. You will find most of the bets explained above as well as many bets on what will happen next in a match. For example, you could bet on the next player or team to score.
