The excitement generated by the NFL took a while to spread beyond its native country but largely thanks to TV coverage, this is a popular sport for spectators all over the world. There is college football too and leagues across the globe but the NFL and the Super Bowl odds are the pinnacle of the sport and this is the time when American Football Betting reaches its highest intensity.
The NFL campaign gets underway in September each year with the Super Bowl following some five months later, either at the end of January or the start of February depending on scheduling. The choice of American Football betting markets will steadily increase as the season wears on but at the outset of each campaign, the outright options are always set to be busy.
Not only can you bet on the Super Bowl winner, markets for each conference are also listed so there is enough to get involved with in the build up to the off. Like all sports, some teams will be much stronger than others but in recent years we haven’t seen any one franchise dominate. The eight Super Bowls between 2009 and 2016 gave us eight different winners so this is clearly an open market.
Once the season begins, match betting is very popular and the side bets build as the months develop.
NFL enthusiasts feel they can use stats and form to their advantage in picking a winner of each match and the Super Bowl itself so this really is a market for the true fan. Having an open field at the start of every campaign also helps to encourage those who like an occasional bet for fun as an open market leads to some great value among the franchises.
It's a great game to watch and as the rise in American Football betting options continues, it’s a good time to assess the markets across our websites.
