Premier League Betting
The Premier League enters the busy festive period with full Premier League 2025/2026 fixture list available from Sky Sports. The EFL teams are already over a third of the way through the campaign and you can see the Championship fixtures, League One fixtures and League Two fixtures too.
When it comes to betting on the Premier League, our bookmaker partners offer a wide range of different bets and offers - from Premier League title betting to first goalscorer bets and relegation betting. Here’s the most common bet types: match result, under/over, both teams to score (BTTS), double chance, handicap betting and in-play betting.
How Football Betting Is Settled
Most bets are settled during 90 minutes of normal play, this includes injury/stoppage time.
For tournament and knockout football, such as the FIFA World Cup 26™ and the FA Cup, any match that goes into extra time or penalties does not form part of a 90-minute market - there are markets that specifically relate to extra time and penalties with markets such as next goalscorer often still available.
If you placed a bet on England to beat Germany in the full time result market and they win via penalties, then your bet will be settled as a loss since the game was a draw after 90 minutes of normal play.
Some bookmakers offer special betting offers before a game starts such as football price boosts and early payouts on full time result betting if your chosen team leads by 2 goals at any point during normal time. They can also provide money back and cash back offers on football matches.
Opta data from Stats Perform is often used to settle the outcome of football bets. This includes simple outcomes such as time of goals but also more complex data such as blocked shots, number of tackles and the number of passes by individual players.
