Which football betting markets are available?
Football markets cover individual matches and outcomes across a season or tournament. Each selection has its own requirements, so read the market description before comparing prices.
Match result
Match result betting involves choosing a home win, draw or away win for the period covered by the market.
Check whether your selection concerns normal time, the first half or another stated period. For cup ties, read whether extra time and penalties are excluded; a team progressing to the next round does not necessarily mean it won the match for your bet.
To cover two possible match results within one selection, explore the Double Chance coupon.
Goals and both teams to score
Over and under goals markets ask whether the total number of goals will be above or below a specified line. For example, over 2.5 goals requires at least three goals, while under 2.5 goals requires two or fewer.
Both teams to score is a separate market where you predict whether each team will score at least once during the period covered.
For a combined prediction covering the result and scoring requirement, visit the Match Odds & Both Teams to Score coupon.
Player markets
Selected fixtures may include player markets, such as first, last or anytime goalscorer.
Use the Goalscorer Coupon to compare available player scoring odds. Check the chosen market, period covered and participation rules before adding a selection.
Outright betting
Outright markets cover outcomes across a league season or tournament.
For example, a selection on a team to win the Premier League requires that team to finish as league champions. Winning its next match alone would not settle the selection as a winner.
Explore our football outright betting markets for available competition outcomes.
Football accumulators
An accumulator, also called an acca, combines eligible selections into one bet. Every selection must win for the accumulator to win. One losing selection means the whole bet loses; void selections are handled under the applicable betting rules.
For example, a hypothetical three-selection accumulator could include:
- A home win in a Premier League fixture.
- Over 2.5 goals in a Championship fixture.
- Both teams to score yes in a League One fixture.
All three selections would need to win. Two correct predictions would not be enough.
Check the chosen bet type, combined odds and total stake on your betslip before confirming.
Bet Builder
Bet Builder lets you combine compatible selections from the same match into one bet. Available combinations vary by fixture.
For example, a hypothetical Bet Builder could combine the home team to win with over 2.5 goals, where offered.
A 2–1 home win meets both requirements. A 1–0 home win meets the result requirement but falls short of the goals requirement, so the bet loses.
Use the combined price displayed in Bet Builder and read the conditions for every selection.
Football betting and transfer specials
Football specials cover specific outcomes or combinations of outcomes. These might concern a player joining a club, a manager leaving their role, a player winning an award or a team winning several trophies.
Explore our football betting and transfer specials to browse available transfer odds and other selections.
Read the market description and settlement rules to understand the outcome, deadline and conditions your bet covers.
How do football betting odds work?
Football odds show the potential return on a successful bet based on your stake. They also indicate how likely an outcome is considered to be, but they do not guarantee a result.
How do fractional and decimal odds work?
Fractional odds show the potential profit relative to your stake. At 5/1, a successful £1 bet would make £5 profit, with your £1 stake also returned. The total return would be £6.
Decimal odds show the total return, including your stake. The equivalent price of 6.0 would also return £6 from a successful £1 bet.
If the selection loses, you lose your stake. These prices are illustrative; check the odds and potential return displayed on your betslip.
What do shorter and longer odds mean?
Shorter odds indicate that an outcome is considered more likely and offer a smaller potential profit relative to your stake. Longer odds indicate that an outcome is considered less likely and offer a larger potential profit.
For example, 1/2 is a shorter price than 5/1. Neither price guarantees the result.
Why do football odds change?
Football odds can change before kick-off as team news, injuries and betting activity affect prices.
During a match, the scoreline, time remaining and events such as goals or red cards can also change the available odds. Review the price on your betslip before confirming.
What is in-play football betting?
In-play football betting lets you place a bet after a match has started. Odds and available markets can change as the game develops, and markets may be temporarily suspended.
Visit our in-play football betting page to browse matches currently underway and their available betting options.

Where can you find football betting tips and news?
Visit Ladbrokes football tips and news for articles covering fixtures, teams and competitions.
Before following a tip, check the reasoning behind the prediction and whether the information is up to date. Recent form, confirmed line-ups and the opposition can provide context, but neither statistics nor predictions guarantee a result.
Treat football betting tips as opinions to assess. No betting strategy removes the risk of losing your stake, and you can always choose not to place a bet.
