What football competitions can you bet on?

LiveScore Bet offers betting across both the biggest leagues and competitions including the Premier League, Champions League and Europa League and leagues and competitions from around the world. From the Algerian U21s to Welsh Championship South, we've got you covered.

Premier League

Quite simply the biggest and best football league in the world. Since its split from the Football League in 1992, the Premier League has commanded the most viewership and attention of any league in world football. At LiveScore Bet, you can bet on every one of the 720 games comprising a Premier League season. Bet in-play across the Big Six of Arsenal, Chelsea, City, Liverpool, United and Spurs to the sleeping giants of Newcastle, Aston Villa and Everton and everyone in between.

The Championship

Whilst it may be English football's second tiered competition, true football fans know The Championship is the most competitive and toughest league in world football. From the grinding and relentless schedule to the tricky away days, getting promoted to the Premier League is no mean feat – just ask a Leeds or Forest fan.

Champions League

Undeniably the pinnacle of club football, the margins at the top are so small it makes for brilliantly entertaining football and titanic duals. 32 teams vie for Europe's top prize but only one team can claim the famous Coupe. See our outrights for your pick for the next European Champions.

Europa League

Whilst playing second fiddle to the Champions League, the Europa League is a well-treasured competition – not least because it confers the winner Champions League football for the following year. It also provides for competitive games and the odd surprise, with smaller clubs often going on to have magical cup runs at the expense of bigger clubs. Fulham's greatest night at the Cottage saw them humble a Juventus side 4-1 in the round of 16 in 2010.

FIFA World Cup

Whether your first World Cup memory is Cruyff's turn in 74, Maradona parting of England in 86, Gazza's tears at Italia 90, Zizou's moment of madness in 06 or Lampard's goal that never was in 2010, the World Cup provides joy and heartbreak in equal measure. 32 teams battle it out through a month-long footballing festival for national pride and that elusive star above the crest. Pick an outright to win or in-play across the 64 matches.

Of course the above is simply a snapshot of the games we have available. The strength of LiveScore Bet lies in the depth of footballing leagues and competitions around the world. Whether that's Europe's other top leagues including La Liga, Bundesliga and Serie A or Algeria's U21 League, we have got you covered.

How to bet on football

Below are some of the most popular football betting markets but we also offer both teams to score, goal scorers, corners, correct score, cards, halftime markets and many more.

Live football betting

Live football betting offers an in-play experience like no other. If you get the feeling a game is going a certain way after kick-off, get ahead and place your bet in our live football markets. We have multiple live markets available from the ultimate result to total goals and correct score.

Match result

Betting on the result of a football match involves the classic three-way bet. Bet on the outcome of either a home win, draw or away win. This is presented as a 1X2 bet where 1 signifies a home win, X a draw and 2 an away win.

Accumulator

An accumulator or acca, is one bet made up of multiple picks that all need to land for the bet to win. An acca pays much higher odds than if you were to simply bet as separate singles because every one of your picks must land for you to get a payout. This means the separate odds are multiplied together, not added therefore offering higher potential returns. Most footie accas comprise multiple match result predictions. 2 selections are known as a double, 3 a treble and beyond that are folds hence, four-fold accumulators, five-fold etc.

Asian handicap

As there can sometimes be a gulf in class between teams, and therefore leave limited returns on betting on the match result, an Asian handicap essentially levels the playing field and removes the option of a draw – which increases the odds. A goal handicap is applied to each side, a positive handicap for the underdog and the inverse, a negative, for the favourite. For example, if Chelsea were playing Birmingham in the League Cup, the handicap applied may be -2 to Chelsea and +2 for Birmingham hence Chelsea would need to win by 3 or more for the bet to land. If Chelsea win by 1, draw or lose, the bet is lost. If Chelsea win by 2 to effectively draw the game after the handicap is applied, the bet is void – as there are no draws in Asian handicaps.

Outrights and specials

An outright bet is a bet placed on the outcome of an entire league or competition rather than an individual game. For the Premier League, not only take your pick for Champions of England but top goal scorer, top 4 finish, PFA player of the year and to be relegated amongst many others. Such markets can be found throughout the hundreds of leagues and competitions both domestic and international.
