Volleyball Betting Explained

Volleyball is largely an indoor sport, although there are some versions that are played outdoors, such as beach volleyball. However, most competitions you can bet on at a volleyball betting site are played indoors.

Online volleyball betting refers to placing a bet on the expected outcome of a volleyball match at an online volleyball sports betting site. For most punters, this means the team that will win a game, but there are various other outcomes you can bet on as well.

Volleyball betting can include a bet on a tournament winner, a bet on the final score, or the winner of the first set. As we’ll discuss later in this betting volleyball guide, there are various markets you can bet on, including volleyball live betting online.

Volleyball Betting Markets

As one of the best volleyball online betting sites in the UK, you can expect to find a comprehensive range of betting markets for this sport. Whether you want to stick to a straightforward bet like the game’s winner or try more advanced betting, you have all the options at Betiton.

Below, we’ve explained some of the most popular betting markets you can try when online betting for volleyball on our platform.

Match Winner

Betting on the match winner refers to placing a bet on the team you think will win a single match. This is the most common and popular betting market in volleyball, especially for new or inexperienced volleyball bettors.

The match winner market offers some of the best volleyball betting odds in terms of the likelihood of winning, especially if you’re betting on the favourite. That’s not to say that the favourite team always wins, but this type of betting is the least risky compared to other markets, such as trying to predict the exact score.

Outright Winner

The outright winner betting market is also very popular and common amongst punters who bet on volleyball online. It’s very similar to the previously described type of bet, but instead of trying to predict the winner of a single match, it’s about predicting the team that will win first place in a competition or tournament.

An example of an outright bet on volleyball is betting on the United States to win the FIVB Men’s World Cup. This market is referred to as a long-term bet because it’s settled at the very end of the tournament, which can last several weeks. Additionally, the odds for tournament bets like this one are typically available on a sports betting site before the initial group stage.

Set Betting

Set betting is an interesting volleyball betting market that allows you to explore various bet types. Volleyball matches are typically played in sets of five, more specifically, the best of five sets. According to the official FIVB rules, the first four sets are played until a team reaches 25 points, while the fifth set is played to 15.

Volleyball set betting can include betting on the winner of any of the five sets, such as the winning of Set 1. You can also bet on the points you think will be scored in a specific set or bet that the points scored in a set will be over or under a particular number. The latter example is a type of Over/Under betting.

Home/Away Team Betting

Betting on the home or away teams is another volleyball betting market with multiple bet types you can try. The most common bet type in this market is the Over/Under bet, which can be applied to either team. For example, you can bet that the number of points scored by the home team will be under or over 41.5 points.

Another example would be betting that the home team will win a specific set or the correct number of points scored by either team. Finally, another related bet type is the Winner and Over/Under bet, which combines betting on the outright winner and the score being under or over a specific number.

How Do Volleyball Betting Odds Work?

volleyball players

Betting odds are the figures used to express volleyball betting predictions for all the possible outcomes in a volleyball game. Volleyball betting odds are provided by the bookmaker and used by punters to place their bets according to what they think the result will be.

Betting odds indicate how likely a specific outcome is and the return you can expect if you place a bet on those odds. Understanding how volleyball odds work is essential to ensure the best odds of placing a successful wager. Let’s illustrate how these odds work with an example.

The most common form of betting odds in the UK is the fractional format, which is used at Betiton UK. This format uses fractions to represent the odds. For example, if the odds of Belgium winning a match are 31/50 and Italy has odds of 107/100, Belgium is the favourite. In the same example, Italy would be the underdog, which means they’re less likely to win.

To calculate the payout you would receive if you placed a successful £10 bet on these odds, you must divide the numbers in the fraction, then multiply by 10, as shown below.

31 ÷ 50 = 0.62.

0.62 x 10 = £6.20

This means if you were to bet £10 on these odds, you would receive £6.20 if your prediction is correct.

Volleyball Betting Tips by Betiton UK

In this section, we’ll share our expert volleyball betting tips that might help you increase your odds of placing a successful bet. The odds of placing a correct bet depend on various factors, including your knowledge of the game, betting experience, and, more importantly, chance.

Having said that, we suggest considering the following tips for volleyball odds betting.

  1. Find the best volleyball betting odds. Compare odds to get the best value for your bets. Even if the difference between odds is minor, the difference in payouts if the bet is successful can be significant.
  2. Consider the home advantage. The home team typically has an advantage in almost every sport, including volleyball.
  3. Don’t skip the research. Take time to research the team’s past performances, head-to-head records, and read expert predictions from reliable tipsters.
  4. Consider volleyball online live betting. Volleyball live betting offers advantages that pre-match betting doesn’t. Placing a correct bet when the game has started is much more likely, although you typically get lower returns.
  5. Read the latest news and updates about volleyball. Stay updated with any recent changes to the team formation, or player injuries.
  6. Ensure you understand the format and the rules. Volleyball rules may vary slightly depending on the game you’re betting on, such as indoor or beach volleyball. The format of major competitions and leagues may also vary.
  7. Switch up your betting strategy occasionally. Every punter has a style of betting, such as sticking to the favourites. Sometimes, it can be beneficial to switch it up.
  8. Learn proper bankroll management. Managing your bankroll is key to a good volleyball betting strategy and might help you avoid big losses.
  9. Know when to take a break from volleyball betting. While it can be entertaining, it’s important to know when to quit. Take regular breaks and avoid making it a daily activity.
