Burundi - Zambia: pre-match betting in the Africa Cup of Nations

This page collects the pre-match odds for Burundi - Zambia, a Africa Cup of Nations fixture scheduled for 17.11.2026. The header shows the kick-off time, the date, the names of Burundi and Zambia and the title of the competition. Under the rules, the date and start time shown in the line are indicative, and a match only counts as postponed or cancelled once the organiser, a federation, a club or another sports information source announces it.

⚽ Markets on the Burundi - Zambia event page

Below the header, the "Search by market" field filters the list. The first blocks deal with the result, the goals and the margin on the scoreboard:

Market	Outcomes shown	What it takes to win
1X2	W1, X, W2	a win for Burundi, a draw or a win for Zambia
Double Chance	1X, 12, 2X	two outcomes out of three: 1X covers Burundi or the draw, 12 rules the draw out, 2X covers Zambia or the draw
Both Teams To Score	Yes, No	"Yes" if each side scores at least once, "No" if either of them fails to score
Total	Over, Under	goals scored by both teams above or below the line
Handicap	1 (…), 2 (…)	the actual score adjusted by the figure in brackets

On the championship page, the card for each fixture names the stage, the group and the round, and may add individual totals marked IT1 and IT2. These count the goals of one team only, and an own goal does not count towards them.

📏 Whole lines and half lines: when the stake comes back

Total lines are not limited to half goals. Next to 1.5, 2.5 or 3.5 you will also see whole numbers such as 2 or 3. With a .5 line a tie with the line cannot happen, so the bet either wins or loses. With a whole line, if the number of goals matches the total exactly, both Over and Under bets are settled at odds of 1, which means the stake is returned.

Handicaps work the same way. The figure in brackets is added to the final score: if the adjusted result favours the team you picked, the bet wins; a level result means odds of 1. Take Burundi at 1 (-1) as an example: a two-goal win makes the bet a winner, a one-goal win returns the stake, and a draw or a defeat loses it. At 1 (-1.5) a margin of at least two goals is required, with no middle ground.

⏱️ What a bet on Burundi - Zambia covers

Football bets are accepted on regular time: 90 minutes in two halves of 45 minutes, plus injury time. Extra time and penalty shootouts only count for markets such as To Qualify or Winner Of The Tournament. Unless the market states otherwise, the 1X2, total and handicap on this page therefore end with the final whistle of regular time.

An abandoned match does not automatically cancel bets: if at least 80 minutes have been played, they stand. Below that threshold, only markets that had already been unconditionally decided when play stopped are kept.

📅 Postponement and a change of venue

For a pre-match bet, the fixture counts as postponed as soon as its official start time changes. If the delay exceeds 48 hours, bets are void; the rules describe this period as approximate and leave the bookmaker free to keep the bets standing. A voided single returns the stake, while in an accumulator the voided selection is simply excluded from the settlement.

The venue can move too. In competitions that use home and away designations, a match switched to a neutral ground or to the opponent's stadium keeps all of its bets.

📝 From picking the odds to a confirmed bet slip

Odds in the line can be viewed without an account; placing a bet requires registering or logging in. Clicking a price adds it to the bet slip, where you enter the stake and confirm. A bet is only accepted once it has been registered on the server and confirmed online; after that it can be neither changed nor cancelled. A stake placed after the actual start of the match is settled at odds of 1 unless it is a live bet.

Accounts are opened on the 1xBet registration page. Bettors in Algeria use the same form.

The other fixtures of the Africa Cup of Nations are gathered on the tournament page, and every upcoming match is listed in the pre-match football line.

Pre-match betting on Burundi - Zambia: common questions

When does the 12 option in Double Chance lose? 🤝

It wins whichever team comes out on top. It only loses if regular time finishes level.

Total 2 and a 1-1 final score: what happens to the bet?

The number of goals matches the line exactly, so Over 2 and Under 2 bets are settled at odds of 1 and the stake is returned. With a 2.5 line this situation cannot arise.

What if Burundi - Zambia is postponed? 📅

A postponement of more than 48 hours from the official start time voids pre-match bets. The rules call this period approximate: the bookmaker may decide to keep the bets standing.

When will my bet on Burundi - Zambia be settled? ⏳

Most bets are settled within minutes of the final whistle. Delays can come from the referee's report, the confirmation of the result or a technical issue.
