Sports Betting – Markets for Every Taste

LeoVegas offers a full sports betting service that works on any device. You can place a variety of bets during the games and beforehand, whether you are at home on your computer or watching the match live from a VIP box. To help you find your favourite sports, we've added filtering options to our sportsbook so you can sort the sports according to your preferences. This makes putting together your bet slips very straightforward. Searching your favourite markets is just as simple whether you are on a computer or using your smartphone.

As part of our quest to offer you the most popular markets, our selection includes player favourites such as football, ice hockey, basketball, tennis, table tennis, and the increasingly popular eSports. Football and ice hockey have traditionally been the favourite sports for many Nordic players, and their popularity is reflected in the number of hobby players, spectators, and bettors alike. eSports has grown in popularity in recent years, and we provide a comprehensive range of eSports betting, including popular titles such as Dota 2, StarCraft 2, CS2, and League of Legends.

Whether you’re looking for major events like the Ice Hockey World Championships, CS2 Majors, or the Olympic Games, you’ll find them with us. We also offer smaller events, such as the SHL league. You can always choose the matches that are most familiar to you, whether it’s the NHL, Premier League, NBA, World Championships, or Spanish La Liga. Our aim is to keep our market selection consistently extensive.

Alongside the most popular sports, LeoVegas offers the chance to bet on more unusual events. You can place bets on sports like water polo and greyhound racing, and even WWE/Pro Wrestling markets.

In our entertainment category, you’ll find international markets linked to television and movies. These include major events such as the Oscars, along with competitions such as Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest in the United States.

Mobile gaming takes sports betting to a whole new level. You can bet on a match’s goal scorer or back your favourite team regardless of where you are. Our lightning-fast live betting ensures you won’t miss a single moment of the action while placing your bets. Thanks to our mobile betting, you can even place bets while watching the match live. Our competitive odds are at your fingertips on both iOS and Android devices.

Our sportsbook allows you to play directly in your browser, no matter which device or browser you use. Whether you prefer Chrome, Safari, or any other browser, our sportsbook works seamlessly.

LeoVegas Sports Betting has also been recognised for its excellence, winning the Best Native App award at the 2017 EGR Awards and being named the best sportsbook of 2018.

Live Betting at LeoVegas

Although live betting might sound like a recent invention, it has actually been around since the 1990s, when bookmakers first accepted live bets over the phone. At first, live betting wasn’t suitable for online platforms. However, thanks to advances in technology, live betting is now fully available online, and at LeoVegas, you can place live bets on any device.

Sports betting interests all styles of players. Some players prefer pre-match bets, while others appreciate live betting. Today’s online betting is versatile, and LeoVegas offers both options. Whether you’re betting live or before a match, we provide the best odds for every market.

Live betting is a way to wager in real time on ongoing events or specific parts of a match. You can even bet on multiple markets simultaneously. Opportunities for live bets are available nearly all the time. The changing odds of live betting add a dynamic element to wagering as odds that were available at the start of a game can completely reverse as the match progresses. Pre-match bets, in contrast, remain fixed and cannot be changed once the game starts. Live betting brings an extra layer of fluctuation to your betting experience.

LeoVegas offers a wide selection of live betting markets, including football, tennis, and eSports. You can easily find your favourite markets in the IN-PLAY section under their respective categories. Click on a sport to see all ongoing matches, then quickly select your market and place your bet. Navigating sports, choosing markets, and placing bets is smooth and fast on any device.

We also stream matches live from more than 30 leagues and tournaments, allowing you to place live bets while watching the action unfold. You can play at LeoVegas and watch live matches wherever you are, on both desktop and mobile. Our optimised site makes betting quicker and more straightforward than ever.

Odds in Betting

Online sports betting works using the same principles as betting at physical locations, and the odds operate in the same way. At LeoVegas, we understand how important odds are in betting, which is why ours are always competitive, regardless of the market. You can easily view the odds alongside each market, making it simple to check them whenever you like.

For pre-match bets, the odds are fixed and don’t change. This means it doesn’t matter whether you place your bet in the morning or the evening; the odds remain the same. In live betting, however, odds can change as the match progresses and probabilities shift. These changes can have a significant impact on your decisions when placing live bets. Regardless of the bet type, one thing remains the same: once your bet is placed and accepted, the odds at that moment are locked in.

Odds are important because they determine your potential winnings and indicate the likelihood of an event occurring. One of the most common betting tips is to keep an eye on the odds as they can provide a good sense of the expected outcome. Higher odds indicate a lower probability but offer bigger potential winnings, while lower odds suggest a higher probability but smaller returns.

On Nordic betting sites, odds are usually displayed in the European format, although American odds may also be familiar to some players. European odds, which are more common at LeoVegas, are decimal numbers like 1.50, 4.25, or 10.50. They show how many times your stake will be multiplied if your bet wins.

American odds, on the other hand, are displayed as whole numbers with a plus (+) or minus (-) sign. A positive (+) number indicates how much you would win on a 100-dollar stake, while a negative (-) number shows how much you need to stake to win 100 dollars.

If your bet wins, your payout is calculated based on the odds that were in effect when you placed the bet.

Get to Know Sports Betting Terminology

Betting becomes more straightforward when you have a stronger understanding of how it works. In addition to learning about markets and odds, it’s important to get familiar with the terminology. Sports betting has many terms, each with its own significance. The list below represents just a small portion of betting terminology, but knowing these terms should be enough to get you started.

• Odds – Odds indicate both the probability of an event occurring and the multiplier applied to your stake if your bet wins. Low odds mean a higher probability but a smaller payout, while high odds indicate a lower probability but a larger potential win.

• Single Bet – Single bets are considered prudent because they offer the highest chance of winning. Many highly experienced and professional bettors prefer single bets for better payouts. A single bet involves wagering on just one market at a time.

• Multiple Bet / Accumulator – When you place two or more bets on the same bet slip at once, you’re making a multiple bet. The combined odds are calculated by multiplying all the odds on the slip. To win, all your selections must be successful; if even one of them loses, the entire bet will lose.

• System Bet – A system bet can include several systems and single bets. Unlike a multiple bet, a system bet allows you to win even if only some of your selections are successful. System bets cost more than multiples because they include many different bets on the same slip.

• Bet Slip – The bet slip is where you select your markets and enter your stake for each bet.

• Live Betting – This involves betting in real time on an event or part of an event. For example, you can bet during a match on the winner, the halftime result, or the winner of a set or period.

• 1X2 / Match Result Bet – This is one of the oldest forms of betting, and it’s sometimes referred to using different terms. A 1X2 bet involves wagering on whether the home team wins, the match ends in a draw, or the away team wins.

Unlimited Betting Options

At LeoVegas, we believe that a high-quality website is an essential part of a great betting experience. Our site is designed so that everything you need is easy to find. Features are accessible on all devices, allowing bettors on the move to place bets wherever they are. Both the LeoVegas mobile site and the app allow you to place bets at home, on a park bench, or even in a stadium. You’re not tied to a single device, location, or even a specific time; online betting opens up far more flexible opportunities.

We have worked to make our sportsbook user-friendly for all our customers. The search function helps you quickly find sports, leagues, and teams on both desktop and mobile. Whether you’re relaxing on your sofa or standing by the ice rink, you can quickly locate your desired market on our site. Once you find your favourite markets, you can save them for easy access under “My Favourites", ensuring they’re always just a click away. However, our site isn’t just about finding markets; you can also explore our daily specials.

To make your betting even smoother, we offer a variety of settings to personalise your experience. LeoVegas lets you adjust options to enhance your betting. For example, you can choose whether odds are displayed in decimal, fractional, or American format. We recommend selecting the one that you’re most comfortable with.

It’s important for bettors to know their markets well. Many players have their favourite markets that they’re familiar with and where they feel confident placing bets, but sometimes it might be worth exploring other sports. On our site, you can find additional information about popular sports such as ice hockey and football. Learning more about a new market can open up fresh opportunities.
