SPL Odds & Betting Markets

The SPL might be at its most competitive in 2025/26, following significant investment in Hearts, Hibs, Aberdeen, and Motherwell. This means that we might be in for more than a two-horse race for the first time in more than 40 years.

Celtic have breezed through all but one SPL season since Rangers’ demotion to the lower leagues for financial issues, but with an American takeover complete and a raft of new and exciting players at Ibrox, the Gers might finally be ready to put an end to the green half of Glasgow’s SPL dominance.

Discover the best football odds at Betano Sportsbook and learn how to bet on the SPL throughout the 2025/26 campaign.

You can place outright, pre-match, and in-play wagers on the Scottish Premiership. Here are some of the most popular Scottish football betting markets at Betano:

Scottish Premiership Winners

Will Celtic continue their title-winning streak? Or will Russell Martin’s Rangers dethrone their neighbours for their 56th title? After significant investments in their respective squads, you might also think Hearts, Hibs, or Aberdeen can mount a serious title challenge this season.

Whoever you back for the title, access the best Scottish Premiership odds at Betano and place a bet on who you think will end the campaign as the champions.

Top Goalscorer

Back the player you think will end the SPL with the most goals in 2025/26. Despite much criticism from the Ibrox faithful for his profligacy in front of goal, Nigerian international Cyriel Dessers finished the 2024/25 season as the SPL top scorer, netting 18 times in 35 matches.

Will he be at the top of the charts again at the end of this season, or will Celtic’s Adam Idah finally justify the enormous price tag the Bhoys gambled on his success?

Relegation

As well as looking at the winners of the Scottish Premiership, you can bet on the sides that aren’t predicted to succeed and drop down to the Scottish second tier.

Falkirk and Livingston will be hoping to retain their SPL status after securing promotion last time around. But with significantly lower budgets than most other teams in the division, it will be a tough ask for both teams.

Match Betting & In-Play Wagers

Don’t restrict yourself to outright SPL betting. Bet on every match throughout the 2025/26 season. You can bet on Rangers and Celtic to win, or the total number of goals scored in any SPL match. We also offer the popular both teams to score market alongside correct score and draw no bet wagers.

We also invite you to participate in live betting on the SPL. Download the Betano app for instant access to the best odds and markets for SPL in-play betting today.

Celtic have almost entirely dominated the Scottish Premiership over the past ten seasons, as the Bhoys have won nine titles. In fact, Celtic have won 13 of the last 14 Scottish Premiership titles, sweeping all before them in this time.

However, it should be noted that Rangers were demoted to the Scottish Third Division in 2012/13 for financial issues. As a result, Scotland’s two-horse race became akin to show jumping, with Celtic never really getting out of second gear in the seasons that Rangers were climbing back up the football ladder, before returning to the SPL in 2017.

Rangers stopped Celtic from winning ten titles in a row in 2020/21, a feat yet to be achieved in Scottish top-flight football. It was a monumental campaign for the Gers, who swept aside the division under boss Steven Gerrard, going unbeaten in the league.

The last time a non-Old Firm club won the SPL title was Aberdeen in 1984/85 under Alex Ferguson. Dundee United are the only other team to have won the SPL since 1965, when Ayrshire side Kilmarnock won their first and only Premiership title.

As wealthy American owners now back many SPL clubs, we may see more of a challenge from teams outside of Glasgow. Sure, they might not have what it takes to match Celtic and Rangers over 38 games, but we expect more upsets and less of a gap between the big two and the chasing pack this time around.

Celtic are the clear favourites to win the SPL title in 2025/26, which would be the Glasgow club’s 14th title in 15 seasons. You can back the Celts to win the SPL this season at Betano.

Rangers, undergoing a mammoth rebuild under Russell Martin, are the top tip to dethrone Celtic this season, but they may need time for things to click on the field, and the title may be out of reach by the time Martin gets them playing.

Hearts, who appointed experienced manager Derek McInness from Kilmarnock, are the best bet outside of the Old Firm as the season starts.

To make things more interesting, you can bet on the winner of the SPL without Celtic and Rangers. This popular SPL outright market features Hearts, Hibs, and Aberdeen.

With much speculation surrounding SPL clubs, you can keep an eye on the latest transfer odds at Betano, letting you bet on where some of the league’s best players might end up during the next transfer window.
