How substitute betting works
You back a forward to score. If he is substituted before scoring and the direct replacement scores later, a qualifying PowerSub/Super Sub-style market can still settle as a winner.
Some operators include assist or score-or-assist markets. Data provider rules matter here, so check whether assists are settled by Opta or another official feed.
Shot markets are often where substitution protection has practical value. If the starter leaves early, the replacement may continue the same shot-count route.
Several Super Sub-style terms include bookings, fouls committed or fouls won. The exact list differs by operator, competition and market icon.
Unibet describes Power Sub as a feature where qualifying football player specials can transfer to the direct replacement if your selected player is substituted. The category covers examples such as goalscorer, assist, shot and card markets where the Power Sub icon appears.
Only markets with the Power Sub icon should be treated as eligible. Always check the betslip and terms before staking.
Power Sub, Super Sub, Safe Sub, Impact Sub and Sub On Play On all address the same betting problem: what happens if your selected player is substituted.
The best option depends on the country, market, odds, eligible bet types and the exact rules shown by the bookmaker.
Unibet Power Sub information is relevant for Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, Ireland, Malta, Netherlands, Romania, Sweden, the UK, France, Ontario in Canada and Italy. Availability, eligible markets and product rules can differ by country.
France uses a segregated poker network. Poker is not available in Ontario, Canada, and poker is not available in Italy. Sportsbook Power Sub rules should always be checked separately from poker products.
Feature names to know
Different bookmakers use different names, but the key check is always the same: the market must clearly show that substitution protection applies.

Sub On Play On
Sub On Play On
Sub On Play On is bet365's substitution feature for selected soccer player markets where the icon is shown.
Super Sub

Sportsbook
Betsson is available in selected markets, but current listings should only describe Safe Sub when the market itself clearly shows that feature.
Check market terms
Monitor
LeoVegas should be monitored for any future substitute-betting feature. Until there is a clear market label and terms page, it should not be ranked as a confirmed PowerSub/Super Sub site.
