Football League Bet

The football league, currently sponsored by Coca-Cola, is a 120 year old organisation, comprised of the Championship, League One and League Two

In total there are 72 teams competing in these 3 divisions, all fighting to be promoted to the next tier either through winning the title outright or via play-offs which often produce a lot of drama and excitement.

A football league bet can be on any of the matches played in the Championship, League One and League Two. While these don’t receive as much media coverage compared to the Premier League, there are many who believe that competition is tighter in these leagues and no single teams are expected to dominate.

Each division has 24 teams with a total of 46 games being played over the course of the season, guaranteeing you plenty of action to make money with a football league bet.

Other than markets on divisional matches, you can also place a football league bet on games played in the two knockout competitions - Carling Cup (the Football League Cup) and the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy (the Football League Trophy), which is played exclusively by teams from the Football League.

A football league bet can be on correct score, half time / full time, each way first goal scorer, last goal scorer bets, half time result, draw no bet, asian handicap betting, first scorer / correct score double (scorecast).

Because relegation and promotion between the three divisions that make up the League is a centre of focus, you can often get good value odds to bet on football league matches.

Seasoned punters suggest that football league betting is more attractive than Premiership football betting due to the fact that bookmakers odds compilers don’t carry out as much research when setting the odds for a football league bet as compared to the top tier league.

If you’re looking to place a football league bet, you can do so online from the comfort of your home or office. To get started, check out the offers on our site where you can get a free football league bet.
