Top 5 Basketball Competitions You Can Bet on at Betiton UK

golden basketball ball trophy

Here are five popular basketball competitions that Betiton UK covers:

NBA

The NBA is a competition where players test their skills against the world’s best while getting paid handsomely. Due to its popularity, every professional bookmaker will have a range of betting markets and odds for the NBA.

The season takes place from October to April and involves 30 teams. The teams play 82 games in the regular season, while those teams that make it through to the play-offs might end up playing 100 games. As a result, plenty of NBA betting options are usually available at sportsbooks.

NBL

The NBL, also known as the National Basketball League, is the premier competition in Australia and is widely regarded as the best in the southern hemisphere. The league comprises ten teams, nine from Australia and the other from New Zealand. The season runs from October to May, and each team plays 30 games during the regular season. At the end of the season, the six top teams qualify for the playoffs, and the best basketball betting sites will have markets and odds for these matches.

Euro League

Aside from the NBA, the EuroLeague has a reputation for being the major benchmark for players – those who perform on this stage will become household names worldwide. The competition consists of 18 teams, and these are the best sides from the different European domestic leagues. If you like football, then consider this to be basketball’s edition of the UEFA Champions League.

The regular season takes place from October to April, and there are 104 matches that you can watch and place wagers on.

Liga ACB

In the footballing world, Real Madrid and Barcelona usually dominate La Liga, and it is no different in the LIGA ACB – these two teams have 31 titles between them, with Barcelona being the reigning champions. This competition is one of the most-attended indoor sports leagues, with an average of 6,300 attending each match.

There are 18 teams in this competition, and the format is a double round-robin. Once each team has played everyone else twice, once at home and away, for 34 matches, the top eight clubs advance to the play-offs.

LKL

The LKL, which stands for Lietuvos Krepsinio Lyga, is a Lithuanian basketball league growing in popularity each passing year. Players who perform well in this big competition have a good chance of being scouted by a team in a bigger league such as the NBA, so there is plenty of incentive to try and stand out.

The league comprises 12 teams and has a quadruple round-robin format that lasts from the end of September until May. After each team has placed every other team four times, twice at home and away, the top eight clubs will qualify for the play-off matches. We offer plenty of top betting options for this Lithuanian league.

Betiton UK Basketball Betting Markets

Here are the most popular markets you’ll find available at Betiton UK:

Match Winner

Pick the team you predict will win the match. This is an excellent market for beginner players to start off with.

Handicap Betting

Traditional wagering might not offer appealing odds if a significant skill gap exists between two teams. Handicap betting adjusts for this by giving one team a theoretical point advantage or disadvantage to create more balanced odds.

Total Bet

This is an under- or over-market, and it has become popular due to the sport’s high-scoring nature. Your bookmaker will provide you with a number, such as 108.5, and then it is down to you to decide if that team will score 109 or more (over) or 108 or fewer (under) in the match.

Race to Points

This involves making a stake on the team you think will score a certain number of points first. For instance, if you wager on the Los Angeles Lakers to score 20 points before the Golden State Warriors do in an NBA match, and they do, then you win your bet.

Winning Margin

If you do not want to predict the match winner, you can take advantage of the high odds for the winning margin. Your bookmaker will give you a range of points, and you have to predict how much the winning team will go on to win.

Other Popular Basketball Bet Types

Here are some other markets Brits can place wagers on:

  • Player Proposition Bets: Choose a player from a particular team and bet on how many points, assists, or rebounds they will score in the match.
  • Team Proposition Bets: Wager on the team you think will score the first points in the match or the total number of points they will rack up.
  • Odd/Even: Predict whether the total points scored in a match will be odd or even. While the odds may be lower, it adds a fun twist to your betting experience.
  • Quarter: These wager types often come with top odds, but they are unavailable for all basketball competitions. They are primarily available NBA matches. What you are trying to predict here is the team winning at the end of a particular quarter.

Betiton UK Basketball Betting Odds

The three main formats you will find at the top betting sites are fractional, decimal, and American, and you can toggle between the three by clicking on the “Decimal” option in the top right. You can learn more about these formats below:

American

American odds, popular in the USA, include plus and minus signs indicating favorites and underdogs. A minus sign indicates the favorite, and the number shows how much you’d need to bet to win $100. A plus sign indicates the underdog and shows how much you’d win if you wager $100.

Decimal

Decimal odds are also known as European odds because they are popular on the continent, and the number indicates what your total payout will be should you get lucky and land a win. For instance, if you were to bet £10 on a basketball match with odds of 4.50 and you win, you would receive a total of £45 back – £35 of profit and your £10 stake.

Fractional

These odds are also called British odds because they are the most popular format in the United Kingdom. The number indicates how much you win for each £1 you stake. For example, if you were to wager £10 on fractional odds of 6/1 and you land a winner, you would receive £70 back – your £10 and a profit of £60.

Basketball Betting Tips by Betiton UK

Below, I’ve listed the best basketball betting strategies to keep in mind when staking on this fun sport:

  • Use tipsters: Many tipsters are fans with deep knowledge of the sport. Before you engage in basketball betting in the UK, take the time to find out what some top predictors are predicting.
  • Account for scheduling: Fatigue has a significant impact on the success that a team has. Teams play many games throughout the season with a varied schedule, so before you place a wager, check whether they have been busy lately and have had to do a lot of traveling. We do not recommend betting on a team that has played four matches weekly.
  • Pay attention to stats: Carefully analyse player and team stats, such as recent performance, average points per game, and injury reports.
