Can a soccer spread push?
This specific bet type provides you insurance in case of a tie in soccer, at the cost of your odds, and essentially gives you a push if the game ends in a tie. With that exception out of the way, pushes are possible in totals and spreads, but not traditional moneyline bets.

What is a +9 spread?
+9. The negative value -9 indicates the Giants are favored by 9 points. The positive value (+9) indicates the Jets are underdogs of 9 points. To place a bet on the favored Giants means they must win by at least 10 points to cover the spread. The underdog Jets can lose by eight points and still cover the spread.

How do you win a negative spread bet?
In the simplest terms, a negative spread indicates the favorite, which is the side that's expected to win the matchup. A negative point spread really means that team has some work to do. For a negative spread bet to hit, the team has to beat its opponent by a margin greater than the point spread.

How does a +4 spread work?
For example, with a 4-point spread, the favorite team must win by more than 4 points for bettors to get paid. Conversely, the underdogs can lose by 1, 2, or 3 points (or win the game outright) and still win the bet. However, if the underdogs lose by more than 4 points, the bet is a loss.
