While America’s NBA is undoubtedly the star attraction on the basketball calendar, the sport is popular across the world and particularly in mainland Europe where the leagues are very strong. If you haven’t looked into basketball betting before, it’s a sport worth considering as there are a number of markets on offer.
You can, of course, bet on the result between any two teams although it’s relatively rare to see a surprise outcome. Therefore, while some might consider this to be easy to call, there are some more tempting odds in the side markets.
Among those options are total points where you can find several options starting with Over or Under 160.5 rising to Over or Under 179.5. research can help you greatly here if you study form and also previous encounters between the two sides to see if they have been high or low scoring affairs.
Similarly, our basketball betting markets allow you to speculate on the total points scored by either or both of the sides involved. A host of other side bets are available and you can also take advantage of the handicap system to make betting on the result just that more exciting.
Like any sport, a bet on a basketball game can increase the enjoyment for those watching – whether they are at home or lucky enough to be courtside. Having a greater interest in the game itself just lifts those excitement levels.
Other advantages to basketball betting lie in choice of markets and the fact that the sport is far more widespread than many might think. Outright tournament betting is popular for the NBA but leagues across Europe and beyond are available for those that know the sport or are prepared to do their research.
For side betting, whether it’s total points, points for each side or anything else from our list, it’s a simple sport to bet on and one where stats and form can be harnessed to the bettor’s advantage.
