I think I’ll just stick to betting on the moneyline, it’s much simpler and feels safer since I’m only picking who will win, without having to worry about how many goals or points they’ll win by. Point spread is too risky for me. I cant tolerate risking my bankroll on it.
In the end what we choose should be based on how safe or more risky we want to be. Moneline safer and less risky, the profit is comfortable while point spread is highly risky, the profits are very high compared to the moneyline.

I fully understand your preference for (Moneyline)as a safe and simple option, especially for bettors who aim to minimise complexities and risks. Indeed, focussing on determining the direct winner removes the pressure of predicting the pip differences, which makes this strategy ideal for beginners or those who prefer stability.
In balanced matches (such as two teams with 1.8 chances vs 1.9),Moneyline may be an excellent option because returns are reasonable with average risk.
In unbalanced matches like a team with 1.1 vs 8.0 chances, Point Spread could be useful! Example: If you bet on the weak team with a difference of +3 goals in football, you may win even if the team loses 2-1, while Moneyline here will give little or no return.
