How to bet on Football

The football betting industry is huge. With this in mind, it is important that you start your journey by knowing the different markets available for different types of bets. These are two options for betting on football:

Simple – Placing a simple bet on football is very common. We are talking about a single choice, in a single game that, if you are victorious, directly guarantees you the winnings. Single bet is the simplest and safest betting mode.

Multiples or accumulators – Multiples are very popular in the football betting industry as they can result in high profits. All the chosen selections are put together in one bet and, in order to win, each individual selection must be correct. Multiples can be very profitable, but at the same time risky since if one of the options fails, the bet is lost completely. 

Football betting options

Final result – It is the simplest and most common way of betting on football, that is, on one of the three possible outcomes. The highest odds are usually for draws. The odds offered with this betting type are generally low but worth the risk. Another possibility is to bet on the correct results in which the player tries to hit the exact outcome of a game. It is very popular among casual gamblers - the odds are high but the risk factor involved is big. You can also bet on individual outcomes in each of the parts of the game. 

Total plus/minus goals – Another popular market in football is the plus and minus goals, with the “lines” usually set at 2.5 goals. The bettor defines whether the game will have more than 2.5 goals (at least three) or less than 2.5 goals (maximum two).

Goal scorer – In this bet, the idea is to bet on the player you believe will score at least one goal in the game. As a general rule, we are talking about high odds, especially if the bet is even more specific like who will score the first goal. 

Five football betting tips

First of all, knowing football and its markets is the most important factor on your football betting journey. The best strategy is to combine football knowledge with the ability to spot odds and identify trends. One piece of advice we can offer you for higher profits is to bet "against the flow", as the odds are usually low on certain occasions because everyone believes in the favorite and, in the end, there may be more value than what is thought of as the "weaker link".

• Be up to date with sports news

Always keep an eye on football news in order to confirm any prognosis. Many factors like injuries, punishments or any discomfort that a player may suffer can have a great impact on the final result of a game. 

•  Assess the teams' motivation

A team’s motivation completely influences the sporting performance of any club. The interest of a match (trophy, qualification for the Champions League, relegation to the second league…) are often determining factors with regard to the motivation of a football team.

The performance of a team can also be influenced by other elements. Is a player being followed by another club? A new athlete just arrived? Is the coach having problems? These different elements can have a strong influence on collective motivation. 

In modern football, the relationship between motivation and a positive mindset is often decisive.

•  Analyze the specific characteristics of each team

Some teams are traditionally strong at home, others are formidable when traveling. If a team has a short squad, it is likely they experience difficulties in the middle of the season, particularly if they have other commitments, such as the Europa League or even the Champions League.

The history of previous matches also reveals the ability of a team against the opponent, or against a certain style of play. History tends to repeat itself, and certain teams have a particular distinction against certain rivals. So, although squads can be completely different since the last duel, the peculiar atmosphere around certain rivalries may persist and have left marks, often influencing the result, year after year. This will be for example the case in more famous derbies or regional rivalries between two teams.
