Betting on eSports at talkSPORT BET is much like placing regular football wagers. Below are the most popular markets among eSports Battle football league punters: 

Match Betting 

The easiest way to bet on eSports is to pick the winner of an upcoming match. Check the odds for each player and decide who is most likely to win the fixture based on their ranking and any previous head-to-heads. Then, choose how much to bet and select the odds of the competitor you think will win. If they win their match, you will receive a payout. 

Total Goals (Over/Under) 

If you think an eSports Battle fixture is too close to call and you can’t pick a winner, you can bet on the total number of goals you believe will be scored. It doesn’t matter which player scores the goals; it only matters how many goals are scored. So, if you bet on over 2.5 goals and the game ends 4-0 or 3-1, you will win your bet.

Both Teams to Score 

If you enjoy regular football betting, you will be aware that the both teams to score market offers great value, particularly when it comes to accumulator betting. As the name suggests, this wager pays out if both teams score at least once in the fixture. The end result doesn’t matter, and the total number of goals scored won’t affect your wager, provided both teams score at least once. 

Draw No Bet 

Another viable option when betting on eSports Battle football is the draw-no-bet market. You will receive your stake back if the game ends in a draw between the two players. This is a particularly good option if you think an eSports fixture will be a tight affair. 

talkSPORT BET is the number one online sportsbook for eSports Battle football betting. We offer great value odds and extensive markets for all eSports football leagues. As mentioned, we also offer odds and markets for other eSports, including DOTA 2, League of Legends, and CS2. 

eSports betting is attractive because there are so many fixtures available to bet on, with round-the-clock action throughout the year. In other words, you can bet on eSports when there’s a lack of real sporting markets available. 

If you’re new to talkSPORT BET and are keen to get started with eSports Battle betting, we encourage you to gamble responsibly and bet within your means. You should set your limits and ensure that you adjust your stake to make your bankroll last for as long as possible.
