Live Football Betting Odds & Price Boosts
We ensure your football online betting is as enjoyable as your team's 90th-minute winner. As well as tens of thousands of pre-match football odds, we offer live betting from stadiums across the globe on all available matches.
Stay on top of the in-play odds that we constantly update on key moments - a goal, injury, penalty, or red card, to name but a few.
Amongst our many promotions for football bettors in the UK are our Price Boosts. UK football fans get more than they bargained for when we enhance our prices. On a daily basis, you can get boosted football betting odds that help to maximise your potential payouts when you back players as they cross the white line onto the pitch.
We’ve got deals to get you started:
- Sub Payout: Whether your selection has been substituted or not, keep your bet active as we will transfer it to your replacement. Available on a wide array of markets such as number of fouls, shots on target, first goalscorer, and more.
- VAR Payout: Love it or loathe it, VAR is here to stay. This isn’t an issue at Virgin Bet. We pay out even when your player has a goal disallowed by the Video Assistant Referee. Available on Premier League, Champions League, Conference League, and World Cup games.
- Acca Free Bet: It goes without saying that accumulators are part of football betting online, and we give you the opportunity to get a £5 free bet for placing four 5+ accas. Our T&Cs are plain and simple: Add a minimum of 4 selections to your bet slip, with all selections at minimum odds of 2/1 or more.
- 2Up Early Payout: Get paid out on your football bets as soon as the team you’ve backed has gone two goals clear. This doesn't include extra time.
Understanding Football Betting Odds
Like any top football manager, we like to make sure all bases are covered, and this is true for the way you bet on football. That's why you can select your preferences between two types of odds on our football betting platform:
- Fractional Odds: These are favoured by many in the UK. This format shows bettors how much they stand to make relative to their stake.
- Decimal Odds: This is the calculation to use to find your potential returns: Stake X decimal figure. Let’s say you bet £10 on football betting odds of 2.50 for an away win in Bundesliga 1. We’ll give you £25 when you win.
Change these from the ‘Odds Format’ toggle in your account settings at your convenience, and you will also find these safe gambling tools:
- Deposit limits
- Account cool-off
- Reality check
- Self-exclusion
Major Football Leagues & Tournaments
Virgin Bet’s online football betting coverage isn’t just about major competitions. Sure, we accept bets on the EPL, Serie A, and Europa League. But you’ll also find non-league, friendly, and international action.
Our rapid swipe menus can quickly locate the competitions you love, be that on mobile or desktop. From there, you can focus solely on football betting. Below is a selection of the top football leagues and tournaments available at Virgin Bet:
Premier League
What’s not to love about the Premier League? Our Premier League betting product provides a wide selection of bets on every game from England's top-flight. This includes betting on the winner, top goal scorer, individual player stats, and a wealth of other markets on our page, which features some of the world's best talent.
EFL Championship
Our football betting online programme also covers England’s second tier. Success in the Championship can result in promotion to the Premier League. But it’s a no-holds-barred competition. Its unpredictability and competitiveness make predicting results tricky. However, there is nothing better than Championship betting on this exciting league with Virgin Bet.
Champions League
The Champions League is the pinnacle of club competition in Europe. It features the very best teams from across the continent. Famous clubs from England, France, Germany, Spain, and other countries battle to get their hands on the 7.5kg, 73.5cm tall trophy. Here at Virgin Bet, our football betting page offers comprehensive coverage of every match.
This includes qualification matches, those that feature in the league stages, and the latter knockout stages of the competition. You’ll find a wide range of outright markets and specials throughout the season on our Champions League betting page.
World Cup
This is the ultimate international prize. At Virgin Bet, you can bet on the qualifying stages as well as all 48 nations’ games in the finals of the World Cup every four years. Look no further than Virgin Bet for outstanding World Cup betting odds, in-play options, and regular specials.
Multi-Match Accumulators & Same-Game Bet Builders
Build your own betslip or combine various match odds for a unique way to wager on matches within the Premier League, World Cup, and numerous other leagues around the world. Our football betting page accommodates bets for up to ten selections on same-game bet builders, including both teams to score, number of goals, and a variety of alternate markets.
Draw No Bet & Match Outrights
Around 23% of football matches end in a draw. Our “Draw No Bet” online football betting market means punters will have their stake returned in the event of a stalemate. You bet on either a home or away win to qualify for this safety net. Virgin Bet covers every blade of grass.
Bettors can utilise many match outrights as a result:
- 1x2
- Correct score
- Both teams to score
- Total goals
- First/anytime goalscorer
- Handicap
- Total corners
- Double chance
Player Stats Markets (Shots, Fouls & Cards)
Are you looking for detailed player prop markets? Virgin Bet is the leading goalscorer in this area. Shots on target, to get a card, and the number of fouls can be bet on from many high-profile leagues and competitions.
Following the match statistics is simple at Virgin Bet. You won’t miss a single touch of the ball, yellow card, or shot thanks to our built-in graphics. It almost feels like you are at the stadium.
Play Virgin Bet FIVES for Free
Virgin Bet’s football betting site is far more than markets and odds. FIVES is a free-to-play game. Think fantasy football with cash prizes. Log in daily from Monday to Friday to reveal a new player in your 5-a-side team. We’ll then give a prize for every goal scored by one of your players over the weekend.
We don’t ask for anything in return, not a deposit or a qualifying bet. We built tension further by using scratchcards to unveil which player is next to join your team.
