Football betting odds

If you’re wagering on football at Bovada Sportsbook, chances are you have an interest in either the NFL chances or the College football odds. The National Football League is the world’s leading expert football league, and the greatest league in all of professional sports. Then, of course, there’s hundreds of markets readily available for the annual Super Bowl national championship.

Basketball betting

Basketball is second only to football when it comes to sports betting in America. Again, the action is split between the NBA odds and the College basketball chances. The National Basketball Association is the leading expert league worldwide, although Bovada also has Euroleague and other odds along with our NBA wagering lines.

Betting on basketball really begins selecting up on December 25, when the NBA presents their annual slate of 5 marquee matchups – one right after the other, so it lasts all day. Then college hoops takes over with March Madness, the epic 68-team NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament. Bovada is also pleased to provide WNBA odds and NCAA women’s basketball odds to all of our wagerers. Similar to football, point spreads are the most popular method to bet, with overalls (aka over/unders) on the final score getting steam over the last few years.

Baseball odds

Baseball wagering has been around for well over 150 years – this is America’s national leisure activity, after all. Because this is a “summertime” sport, baseball does not have the exact same college profile as football and basketball, however with each Major League Baseball group playing 162 regular-season games a year, there’s no scarcity of games to select on Bovada’s MLB odds board.

Baseball isn’t simply an American sport, naturally. There are quality leagues in Japan, South Korea, Mexico and elsewhere; you can even bet on baseball at the Summer Olympic Games and the World Baseball Classic. And yes, you can wager on college baseball, too, specifically during the College World Series in June. Totals and moneylines are the most popular baseball bets; considering that the ratings are so low compared to football and basketball, baseball uses “run lines” rather of point spreads.

Hockey betting

Rounding out the “Top 4” in American sports wagering, hockey is among the most cherished sports in locations that really experience winter season – but the National Hockey League is also growing throughout the southern US. The previous thirty years or two have seen groups from Anaheim, Phoenix, Dallas, Miami, Tampa, Nashville, San Jose and Las Vegas contributed to the NHL chances board.

Hockey wagering lines aren’t quite as common in college hockey, however keep your eyes peeled for the last two rounds of the NCAA Division I males’s tournament, aka the Frozen Four. International tournaments like the Olympics, World Cup and IIHF World Junior Championship likewise do industry with bettors. And as with baseball, hockey wagerers are more inclined to wager overalls and moneylines than the “puck line.”

Soccer wagering

Soccer is the most popular sport worldwide, and finally, it’s being in the United States. Chances are you’ll still be more interested in the Premier League (EPL) than Big League Soccer (MLS) when you browse the soccer wagering chances at Bovada. However, the MLS has made fantastic strides here just recently, especially with Lionel Messi and other prominent players signing.

Joining the EPL in the worldwide “Top 5” soccer leagues are Germany’s Bundesliga, Spain’s La Liga, Italy’s Serie A, and France’s Ligue 1. But almost every nation has a feasible soccer league these days – and because this is the lowest-scoring sport of them all, the soccer betting lines look a bit various. Have a look at our broadened Soccer FAQ for more information.

Tennis odds

Tennis has become the top private sport when it concerns betting, and the tennis betting chances at Bovada are buzzing throughout the year – a lot more so when among the 4 significant tournaments (Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, US Open) is on the horizon. You can wager on who will win the whole competition, or you can bank on the individual matchups.

You’ll find simply as numerous WTA events on Bovada’s tennis chances board as ATP events, and while this is considered a “summer” sport on the betting calendar, tennis is played throughout the year, so there’s constantly something good to wager on.
