An Introduction to Betting on the English Premier League

Despite its prestige, the Premier League is actually very young. It was formed in 1992 when clubs in England’s First Division quit the Football League in order to force through structural changes. Each year, those that finish in the top four positions of the Premier League automatically qualify for the UEFA Champions League. The teams that finish bottom three are automatically relegated to England’s Championship League. The relegated teams are then replaced by the two teams that finished top in the Championship League as well as the winners of a Championship playoff tournament that is contested by the teams that finished in third to sixth place.

So far just seven teams have won the Premier League. Manchester United have the most titles (13), followed by Chelsea (5), Manchester City (5), Arsenal (3), and Blackburn Rovers, Leicester City and Liverpool (1).

Betting on the English Premier League

There are numerous ways to bet on the Premier League. It is possible to bet on each game individually as well as the league as a whole. As such, there are plenty of opportunities to win. Here we shall take you through some of the most popular types of bets.

Match Result

This is the simplest bet. You are just predicting which team will win the match or if it will end in a draw. For example, if Liverpool were playing Arsenal, you could be on either of the teams to win or for the game to tie.

Double Chance

This is a great bet if you want to reduce your risk as it allows you to bet on two of three possible outcomes. You can bet on home team win or draw, away team win or draw, or home team win or away team win. For example, with Liverpool vs Arsenal, you can bet Liverpool win or draw, Arsenal win or draw, or Liverpool win or Arsenal win.

Total Goals

There are a number of different versions of this bet. The most popular one is on the total number of goals scored in a match. We give you a number and you bet whether there will be more or less than that number of goals scored. For example, Liverpool vs Arsenal 2.5. You bet over if you think there will be 3 or more goals or under if you think there will be 2 or less goals. You will also find versions of this bet that apply to the individual teams rather than the match as a whole.

Goal Handicap

This is a slightly complicated market. It gives the favourite team a goal handicap that they need to overcome and the underdogs a goal advantage.

For example, Liverpool -1.5, Arsenal +1.5

In this instance, if you bet on Liverpool, then you win the bet only if Liverpool win by at least 2 goals. If you bet on Arsenal, then you win the bet only if Arsenal win or lose by no more than 1 goal.

Half-Time/Full-Time

In addition to betting on the result of the entire match, you can bet on the result of the first half and/or the second half. This means you could bet on Arsenal to win the first half but Liverpool to win the match.

Goalscorer

This is a bet on a specific player to score during a match. For example, you could bet on Mohamed Salah to score a goal. You may also find bets allowing you to bet on which player will be the first or last player to score.

Draw No Bet

This is a bet that has a bit of safety built into it. You bet on the winner of the match, but if the teams draw, then your bet is returned.

Player Prop Bets

These are bets on players to do specific things, such as to have shots on target, to be the first or last goalscorer, to be booked, to be sent off, and so on.

Future Bets

These are bets on the league as a whole. For instance, you could bet on Liverpool to win the league, Salah to score the most goals in the season and more. You may also be able to bet on things such as the next manager to be sacked or for a player to be transferred. The bets can be placed at any point, so it is always worth having a look at them.

Many More Markets

There are hundreds of markets available for every single Premier League match. You will find that you can bet on every aspect of a match and can develop advanced betting strategies. Take the time to explore them all so that you don’t miss out on any chances to win.
