As this site is called What’s Trending, we need to have our finger on the pulse of the biggest trends and things that are happening right now, and for sports fans, nothing is more exciting than your favourite sport coming back. For all the football fans, your last few months for football have been very busy. Not only have all the big leagues just come back but the European Championships were on for a lot of the summer too.
One of the biggest aspects of football is betting, they really go hand in hand the range of markets for players to bet on is massive. Not only are there outrights where you can pick who will win trophies (individual and team trophies), but you can also look at the football odds for a range of smaller markets, like shots on target and player bookings.
This leads to the first point I want to talk about which is the variety in the betting.
Variety
Unlike other sports, football has a massive range of markets that bettors can choose from. American football is close to the amount of things you can bet on but football has more than any other sport in the world.
The range can go from small things to tackles and throw-ins, to big things like goalscorers. Because football is such a busy sport and a lot happens, it gives people more variety to choose what they like doing.
How It Compares To Other Sports
American football is a massive sport and has a lot of betting aspects involved in it, but it isn’t one of the world’s biggest sports and instead is mainly popular in America (the clue is in the name), this automatically gives football an aspect over the sport.
Football is easily the biggest sport in the world and this is reflected in the betting side because not a single sport in the world can compete in views and attendances – which also is relevant in betting.

Accessibility And Ease
Sports betting sites and sports betting apps, like BoyleSports for example, are so easy to bet on which is a reason why so many people love betting on football. No matter where you are, you can pick something to bet on.
Whether you are in the stadium, having some drinks in the pub or sitting on the sofa, it is easy to place something and potentially win money. It also helps that apart from betting the sport is fun and easy to watch.
Unlike American football where there are loads of rules and constant breaks in play, or horse racing where it is very quick and over too soon; football has the perfect balance. Games are usually quick and fast-paced while lasting 90 minutes which means a lot can happen.
The rules are also quite easy to follow for new viewers who are only watching to bet or because they are with people who like the sport. The only confusing rule is the offside rule which you pick up on after a few watches anyway.
How We Suggest Getting Into Football
If you have read this with no football knowledge or experience then we recommend you giving it a try, not just for the betting bit for the sport itself. As we said earlier, the sport is constantly on no matter what time of year or what time of the day. It is the perfect hobby because it’s a group hobby and can keep you active while also being something you can do at home or out and about.
You can stay at home and invite some friends to watch the games or you can go out (to the game or to a pub) and make a day of the games you are watching.
