NFL Betting

American football might not be as prominent as soccer among UK bettors, but the NFL is rapidly becoming more popular among British sports fans. At Betano, you can bet on all NFL games throughout the season while accessing the best NFL odds in the UK. Read on to find out how to bet on the NFL and discover some handy NFL betting tips to bear in mind as you make your selections. 

Popular NFL Betting Markets  

There are lots of ways to bet on NFL games at Betano:  

Moneyline Bets  

A “moneyline wager” is a straight-up match-winner bet in American football betting parlance. In other words, you’re betting on one team to beat another in the NFL. Before choosing a winner, research the team’s current form, injuries, and head-to-heads. Look at the current standings and consider which team will most likely win. We also advise you not to bet on the team that you support, as doing so can cloud your judgment!  

Point Spread Betting  

Point spread betting in American football is known as handicap betting in other sports. It’s a great way to level the playing field when betting on the NFL, and it can help improve your odds if you want to back your favourite.  

For instance, let’s assume the Kansas City Chiefs are hot favourites to defeat the Denver Broncos in a regular season match. Rather than betting on the Chiefs to win outright in a moneyline wager, you could back them to beat the Broncos with a -7.5 point handicap to improve your odds. You will win your bet if the Chiefs win by at least eight points.  

Over/Under (Totals) Betting  

Rather than picking one team to beat another in the NFL, you can opt for a totals wager. Here, you need to bet on whether over or under a combined number of points will be scored in a match. It doesn’t matter which team or players score the points; only the total number of points is essential.  

For example, you might bet over 37.5 points being scored in a match between the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Eagles. Assuming the game finishes 27-14 in favour of the Eagles, 41 points would have been scored, and you would win your totals bet. 

Prop Bets  

Prop bets are wagers you can place on individual occurrences within an NFL match rather than on the game's outcome. For instance, you might bet on the player to score the total passing yards in a match for your favourite quarterback. Make sure you research player stats and performance levels before placing prop bets so you can find value in this market. 

Futures Betting 

If you don’t want to focus on individual NFL game weeks, you can concentrate on NFL futures markets at Betano. The obvious one is to bet on the Super Bowl winner, but you can also bet on the conference and divisional champions and which player will be the end-of-season MVP.

Tips and Strategies for NFL Betting 

Here are some handy tips that will help you make the most out of your online NFL betting experience at Betano:  

• Research and analysis: You should always bet with your head, not your heart. Research a team’s current form, injuries, and recent head-to-head history before backing them. If it’s an early season fixture, consider how the draft went and whether the team looks as strong as last term before including them in your NFL wager. 
• Betting on different stages of the season: At Betano, you can bet on all stages of the NFL season, including pre-season, regular season, and post-season matches. Just be mindful that teams rotate their best players at different campaign stages, particularly after securing their place in the playoffs. This will likely affect their end-of-season results, so it’s something to remember as you make your selections. 
• Live betting on NFL games: You can place numerous live, in-game bets on NFL matches at Betano. For instance, you can bet on the next TD scorer or which team you think will win a quarter. Momentum shifts occur quickly in American football, so watching the game live and taking advantage of live markets in real time can help you identify value and place winning wagers.  
• Bankroll management: You must gamble responsibly when betting on the NFL, so bankroll management is crucial. Visit our Safer Gambling Portal to learn about tips and tools for responsible gambling.
