    It depends on the exact type of bet you mean mate.

    It its a HT/FT bet, you would be betting on the home side to win the first half, and the second half to be a draw.

    Another possible bet there is that your betting on either the home side to win or the game to be a draw, prices are normally poor on that outcome unless of course your backing the team that isnt favourite to win the game.

    That would be my outcome, maybe some more experienced lads on here might know more :)

    I presume it refers to a "Draw no bet" (DNB) stake, where you back the home team to win but if they draw you get your money back. Its quite a good bet for certain teams who may not be world beaters but who are strong on their own patch - like Stoke.

    I'm a football odds compiler and trader. If someone spoke to me about a "Home draw", I would assume they were talking about a cup fixture, where the team in question had been drawn (out of the bag) to play the match at home.

    As you are specifically talking about a bet, I can't really add much to shocksy's post

    Written as "Home - Draw" or "Home/Draw", would suggest a half time full time bet, or written "Home or Draw", would suggest a double chance bet, both of which were described perfectly by shocksy.

    If there were to be a dispute over a bet, which I was asked to adjudicate on, where the punter had simply written the words "Home Draw" on the slip, I would settle the bet as a double chance (a bet on the home side to win OR draw)
