What are underdog odds?

Underdog sports betting constitutes moneyline wagers in which the bettor backs the team with a lower likelihood of winning the contest. There must be a favorite and an underdog in every game. Because they have a lower possibility of winning, the operator often gives the best odds to the less favorite.

What does 72 odds mean in horse racing?
It reflects the amount of money bet on a horse; the more money that is invested, the shorter the odds. When horse racing odds are shown in the form of 7-2, 5-1, etc, it expresses the amount of profit to the amount invested. So odds of 7-2 mean that for every $2 invested, the punter gets $7 profit in return.
