While domestic football across most of Europe takes a break, it is a good time to kick back and find some other sources of picking up winnings on football betting. Check out your online bookmaker now and you will see plenty of football action happening from the across the globe, but it may not be immediately attractive to your wagering needs, because you are unfamiliar with the teams involved. That’s natural, because if you are Chelsea fan, you’re unlikely to be paying too much attention to the leagues in South America for example. So while football leagues and tournaments which you are not familiar with are all that you have to satiate your football betting needs over the summer, there are some good pointers which you could follow in order to continue trying to make profits during what could be described as your off season. Remember, that there are no guarantees in football betting and while you see matches listed from the Argentinean League for example, of which you may know nothing about, you may immediately think that you are even further out of your depth. But fear not, all you need is a few helpful pointers. There are great ways to explore football betting to fill the void of the domestic break, and with no summer international tournaments happening either, you can look to foreign leagues to pick up profits. One of the best ways to do this is through live in play betting. Here we present a guide of how to make the most of the live in play betting feature to help you during the off-season for football betting.

Football is Football is Football

It doesn’t matter if it is played in Azerbaijan or Zimbabwe, it is still football. The same game. You probably have your betting strategy planned out for online football betting which you are familiar with. Well, the good news is, those trends upon which you base your live betting on the Premier League for example, will stand up well in leagues across the world. That means you really don’t have to change much from betting on Premier League matches to matches from Australia for example. The same basic principles are at work. There will be strong favourites occupying the top of the league, and the basement dwellers who are struggling to pick up points. This means that somewhere in between all of that, there is some great profit to be picked up, if you play your live football betting cards right. There are just trends in football which come into effect most of the time, wherever in the world the game is being played, trends which can be exploited with live in play betting. Trends which we look at here.

Use Online Bookmaker Tools

Before you get going on foreign leagues, get help from your online bookie. What? Help, you say? Yes, online bookmakers will, more likely than not, have plenty of tools to help guide you along. Naturally the bookie doesn’t want you to win big, but they want you to play, so use what is available on their websites to your advantage. Look at Stats, where you can find valuable head to head information, league tables and recent scores. This kind of information should be readily to hand and these are very valuable. The more informed you are, the better your chances of betting smart will be, and so, the tools, often ignored or taken for granted, really are there to help. Because even looking at the league standings of a foreign league can give you an indication of where to head for your live betting. For what strong teams there are to look out for. Which middle table team is good for drawing matches? Who is on a streak in the form guide? It is a quick stop to get a feel for your betting in foreign leagues, which in the long run can prove vital.

Useful Live In Play Football Betting Trends

Because of the benefits of live in play betting pushing out the price on favourites, you can be in a strong position with live football betting if the underdog team scores first in a match. Let’s say Aston Villa are playing at home Manchester United at Old Trafford, and they grab themselves an early lead. That will immediately lengthen the odds on the favourites United, to what they would have started as. So this is your big chance at extra profit. So this is the perfect time to back Manchester United? Why, you ask, if they are losing? Because United would still stand more than a fair chance of not losing the match, if they conceded say in the first twenty minutes of the match (the earlier the underdog scores, the more chance the favourites will have to get back into it obviously). So, after falling behind, this is where you would expect the favourite in the match to step up their game, and somewhat inevitably get themselves back into the match. How often to United fail to grab something out of seemingly nothing, for example? Not very often. So while this is the prime time to back United outright to win in live in play betting, it is also worth taking something like a Aston Villa/United or Draw/United Half Time/Full Time bet if you think United will run out winners at the end of the match. Or a Draw/Draw or Aston Villa/Draw if you wanted a bit of coverage thinking that Villa may hang on to a point. This is the huge benefit of live in play football betting, the higher prices you can pick up on the same market you wanted to bet on to start with. So betting on United while they are behind, still requires the same outcome as if you had bet on United outright to start with. The thing about this, is that the strategy works for favourites in matches in other countries. As does the Red Card factor. Let’s say Villa and United are tied 1-1 then the Red Devils get a man sent off with twenty minutes to go in the match. What will the natural trend of this situation be? United get ten men behind the ball and defend for their lives. Because of this increase in defensive duties, this would be the perfect time to look into the Over/Under market. If a red card is shown in this instance, it is worth taking Under 2.5 Goals for example, simply because of the backs against the wall effort which United would put in. You would not get this opportunity to weigh up situations without the advent of live in play football betting. The flip side of this, is there is an early red card in the match, the chances of the other team scoring are increased.

Watch and Bet

This is very important, as you can get to judge how a game is panning out instead of just hoping that a win will come in whatever manner. The former has the chance of higher profit. Getting the flow of the game is so important, especially on matches where you aren’t familiar with the teams. Online bookmaker like Bet365 offer a fantastic array of live streams from across the world, and it really helps with your in play betting strategy. There is nothing like getting the feel for the game, because you can clearly see who is maintaining possession and who therefore is most likely to score. Can’t stress this enough, along with taking a look at stats. Watching live streams is the perfect partner for your live in play football betting. Feeling the game is such a major advantage.

A Live In Play Football Betting Example

We looked at Independiente v Lanus from Argentina in the list of forthcoming live betting fixtures. Not something many will instantly know about, as it is not like looking at a coupon and see Chelsea v Tottenham Hotspur for example. Anyway, at Bet365 (who have awesome stats from across the world), clicking on the stats tab and we see Lanus in 2nd and Intepdeniente having fallen down to 6th in the league. A quick look at the head to head three of the last four corresponding fixtures being won by Independiente (who have won 8, drawn 3 and lost 0 against Lanus at home in the last eleven matches). Strong trend! Both teams have won their last three league matches, so all in all it looks like an even match. So this is perfect as Independiente started slight favourites at 7/5 with Bet365, with Lanus 19/10 to win (draw a 9/4). So, if Independiente fell behind in the match, with Lanus being a decent team, Independiente’s odds are going to drift, but their record in this fixture is exemplary, so would expect them to get something out of it. Backing them when behind in the match (as long as its not too late in the game when time is running out on them) will bring greater rewards than the 7/5 odds to start with. The other way to do this, would be to back Lanus or Draw pre match (as that is where the value is, even though Lanus are above their opponents in the league) and if they take that early lead, great, so you can either sit on it and wait, or jump on Independiente if they fall behind to hedge your bets. Exactly the same scenario if United were playing Villa, see, so it does not matter where the match is coming from.

Some Advantages of Live In Play Betting

• Higher Prices than pre match set odds
• Chance to hedge your bets
• Get a feel for the action
• Enhanced excitement

Secure Your Winnings

There are ways to cover your bets with live in play betting. Let’s say you have backed Aston Villa to win the match against Manchester United, and Villa take the lead. That’s great. Now this is where your own risk assessment comes into play with live betting. If you think Aston Villa are going to hang on to their lead, you can just leave your stake alone and bite your finger nails for the rest of the 90 minutes. Or, you could be proactive and put a stake on a Draw, or even United to win (because these odds will have lengthened). So, should United pop up with a last minute equaliser, at least you will have picked up some good priced coverage thanks to live in play betting. There is another way to do this at Betting Exchanges like BetFair. If you were to lay a £10 liability bet on United (which means that you are betting that the outcome of the match will be them NOT winning) at say Evens, and then they fall behind to that early Aston Villa goal. What happens? Immediately United’s odds on winning the match lengthen (even though they started as favourites) and your bet is looking good to pick up some profit. While they are a goal down, if you picked up odds even at Evens in live in play betting on United winning (for the same stake as your liability in laying them) from that position, you are not going to lose, whatever the outcome of the match. There are other ways to formulate strategies covering your wagers through live in play betting, these are just basic examples.

Live in Play Betting Summary

So, using live in play betting, and especially being able to watch the events at your online bookmaker as well, really can be like betting on your favourite team. Just picture them on vacation playing in sunny climes somewhere else in the world, in different kits. It’s all the same for your football betting. So, in summary:

• Do a scan of stats (knowledge is power!)
• Look for market value
• Stick to your strategy
• Never bet more than you can afford to lose
• Enjoy and have fun!

We witnessed a famous FA Cup upset at Old Trafford on Sunday, with Leeds United obliging with victory at odds of 10/1. While Manchester United weren’t at full-strength, the best pre-match price available about the English champions was 1/4 with bet365, with Sir Alex Ferguson’s men expected to expose the gulf in class between the two sides.

At half-time, Jermaine Beckford’s 19th minute goal was the difference between the two teams  and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to pay a visit to one of the best bookmakers for In-Play betting. Bet365 have a cuttting-edge live betting console and it was interesting to note that they were making the Red Devils 7/5 favourites before the second-half kicked off. The draw was priced at 2/1, with Leeds available at 21/10 despite their advantage.

At the interval, you could also have backed ‘No Second Goal’ at odds of 9/2 with bet365, with Manchester United a 1/3 chance to score next and the visitors at 5/1 to grab a second. The bookmakers were clearly expecting Sir Alex Ferguson to have a few harsh words for his team in the dressing room!

However, five minutes into the second half and Leeds looked relatively comfortable. Wayne Rooney was already starting to come deep for the ball and the League One team were having a fair share of possession. United were out to 8/5 on bet365′s In-Play console, with the draw 2/1 and Leeds at 15/8. The odds on there being Under 2.5 or Over 2.5 goals were both 5/6, with the champions still expected to score.

By the 56th minute, Manchester United werre still failing to make an impact and bet365 decided to make them the 15/8 outsiders to win the match. With 35 minutes left (plus stoppage time), Leeds were the 7/4 favourites and were occasionally threatening on the break. Valencia and Giggs were thrown on in a bid to shake things up.

As the game went past the hour mark, bet365′s traders were changing the match odds every two minutes, something to note for future In-Play betting matches. The Red Devils must have been heavily backed by many customers expecting the Premier League team to eventually find a breakthrough and kick on to win, although Simon Grayson’s team were standing firm. In the 62nd minute, Man United were made 9/4 chances by bet365, with Leeds still available at 6/4 to back. However, by the 68th minute with Leeds looking comfortable, the home side were 11/4 and the visitors were 5/4. The draw was available at 7/4.

As we went past the 75th minute, the bet365 traders had seen enough of Manchester United’s lacklustre display to decide it was unlikely they would score two goals in the remaining time. Bet365 offered 5/1 about Manchester United and made Leeds odds-on (5/6) for the first time in the match. Indeed, it was the Yorkshire side that nearly scored around the 80th minute, with Beckford shooting wide and then Snodgrass hitting the woodwork with a free-kick. Manchester United were now 9/1, the draw was 9/4 and Leeds were 1/2 chances.

There was an additional five minutes of injury time for the Red Devils to salvage a draw and they nearly came close to obliging at odds of 15/4 with a goalmouth scramble. However, it was those that had backed Leeds before the match or In-Play with bet365 that were celebrating by the final whistle.

Among our favourite bookmakers to deal with are bet365, who are getting bigger and better every year. They are one of the world’s leading online gambling groups and have over 3 millions customers in 200 different countries. Over 1000 people are now employed by bet365 and they currently rank as the UK’s 7th largest private company.

There is plenty to like about bet365, who offer all new customers a 100% deposit bonus when they register. However, while lots of other bookmakers also provide generous starter offers, the Stoke-on-Trent company take other great lengths to offer customers a top-class service.

Over 5,000 events streamed live every year

It’s the free live streaming of sporting events that has been making waves for bet365 in 2009. In October, the bet365 website was the only place where UK customers could watch Ukraine v England completely free of charge. That is just the tip of the iceberg, with this bookmaker showing over 5,000 events every year. A cursory glance at the site reveals that they are planning to stream soccer, tennis, basketball, volleyball, badminton, darts and snooker in the next seven days.

However, let’s not forget that bet365 are a bookmaker first and an online sports channel second! Therefore, you can expect all of the live streamed events to have accompanying live odds and its In-Play betting which is the real jewel in the bet365 crown. It appears as though they aim to be covering at least one event at any given time, so you will find live betting at bet365 at least 80% of the time when you visit the website.

Check out the 100% Euro Soccer Accumulator

Whether you’re betting before or during an event, you will find competitive odds at bet365, whose football coverage is very impressive. Leagues from around the world are covered in a comprehensive fashion and we found an excellent promotion available for the Premier League, Serie A, Primera Liga, Bundesliga 1 and Champions League. If you like placing accumulator bets, then bet365 will pay you a bonus on top of any winnings that you receive. Customers can get a 5% bonus for a winning treble, while there is 10% added to a winning 5-fold. If you really fancy striking it rich, there is a whopping 100% bonus available for a winning 14-fold!

We also unearthed two more football offers at bet365, something that’s easy to miss with the live streaming and in-play odds occupying so much of the homepage. The Bore Draw Money Back promotion means that you get insurance from a match finishing 0-0. Any correct score, HT / FT or Scorecast bets are refunded on a soccer game if there are no goals. It’s ideal if you think a match is going to be tight and want to back 1-0 to either team, while a correct score multiple bet also means that bet365 is a welcoming place to visit.

Finally, for those of us that like football stats, it’s well worth checking these out at bet365. In the left-hand menu, you can launch ‘Soccer Stats’ and fill your boots with football data. It’s especially good for judging a team’s form and also for analysing total goals bets.

Hi

Here is my strategy: I bet on bet365, I think it got the bet live betting online. Here are my things, i bet on tennis matches. I take two god player or doubles or even a good player against a weak one and bet on the next game.

When you see the player is a gos server you can always bet on him when he is about to serve, the odds are not so big up to 1.5, but when you bet a lot of time in the same match you can make a lot of money. With to good player espesially on the senior tour, you get one or two breaks per match, they often finnich in tie break, you bet on both players when they serve and get wrong one time in 10-12 games.

I’ve made a 400% win on my initial stake.

The other things are the handball games, there are always periods when goals don’t come, then the under/over score falls down, when it’s really small you bet over and allways win.

Sky Bet offer a massive range of live betting opportunities online.  Live betting, or in running betting, is where you can bet on a sport whilst it is happening.  This might be, for example, betting on a tennis match whilst you are watching it on the TV, or even betting on the football as it happens.

Live betting is very popular as it offers people the chance to have a live bet after they’ve had a chance to watch a bit of the action, and hence had a chance to determine which team looks better, or which player looks more likely to win.  To place a live bet is simple, it works in the same manner as placing a normal bet, but is subject to a small delay of a few seconds, to allow for the fact that the odds might change as you’re placing the bet.

Popular sports for live betting include football, where you can bet on markets such as “next team to score,” “next goalscorer” and traditional markets such as match winner and correct score.  Tennis is also very popular for live bets, and you can place a live bet on markets such as “total points in next game,” “next game winner” and “next game receiving points” amongst many more.

For slower paced sports, such as cricket, live betting makes the action much more exciting as you can place a series of bets throughout the day as play progresses.  Place your live bets using Sky Bet’s live betting console, Sky Bet Live, which is available on Sky Bet whenever there is live sport available on which to bet.
