Bundesliga: Most Popular Markets
Picking the champions should, for anybody interested in Bundesliga betting online, be simple. Bayern Munich have won the last nine seasons – surely they’ll win it again?
Not necessarily. While Bayern are favorites on virtually all Bundesliga betting sites, there are reasons for suggesting that the race may be a little more open this season.
Borussia Dortmund, runners-up to Bayern five times in the last nine seasons, will believe they can go one better this time around thanks to the goals of Erling Haaland.
Similarly, RB Leipzig overcame the sale of prolific goalscorer Timo Werner to Chelsea last season to lay down a strong challenge to Bayern to finish second, and will hope to go one better this year.
Most online Bundesliga betting experts will tell you that Bayern will make it ten in a row, but there are several contenders who believe they can end that run.
It would take a brave online Bundesliga betting expert to single out anybody but Robert Lewandowski as the likely winner of the Golden Boot for what would be the seventh time.
Bayern Munich’s Polish striker plays up front for the German champions. At the age of 33, he is still in his goalscoring prime. However, there are young pretenders to his crown. The most likely is Erling Haaland, an astonishingly promising talent.
The Borussia Dortmund star is only 21 but plays with a maturity well beyond his years and has a keen eye for goal. It would not be surprising if Bayern neutralized his threat to their title by signing Haaland, who is also a target for big-spending English clubs.
Another Golden Boot contender who is worth checking out on Bundesliga betting sites is André Silva, the 25-year-old RB Leipzig striker.
One of the most popular Bundesliga betting markets is focused on the teams who finish in the all-important top four places. This leading quartet will play in the lucrative Champions League the following season.
It is inconceivable that Bayern Munich will not qualify, but there is a potentially interesting race for the other three spots, according to Bundesliga betting sites.
Borussia Dortmund have finished outside the top four only twice in the last 13 seasons.
RB Leipzig have made the cut five times in their first six seasons in the Bundesliga and will challenge strongly again. One of the toughest Bundesliga predictions this season is who might take that fourth place. Bayer Leverkusen, Wolfsburg and Borussia Mönchengladbach are the teams most likely to battle it out.
Some of the most intriguing Bundesliga betting online takes place on the identity of the teams who will not be in the league next season.
It’s worth noting when checking Bundesliga betting sites that you can bet on a team to finish in the bottom two and be automatically relegated.
But remember that teams can be relegated via the two-leg play-off between the 16th-placed Bundesliga side and the team who finish third in the Bundesliga 2. Only three times in 13 years has the higher-ranked side lost this play-off, though.
Greuther Furth and Arminia Bielefeld look most likely to fill the bottom two positions.
But FC Koln, who had to win the play-off to stay up in 2020/21, and Bochum, recently promoted, could also find themselves in trouble towards the end of this season.

Soccer Bets Explained
Moneyline
Aka match result odds, the moneyline is the most straightforward bet available if we are looking to wager on a soccer match – which team do we think is going to win? We decide and place our bet accordingly. Important to note in soccer, unlike many other sports, the moneyline can also include the third option of betting on the tie (draw).
Handicap Betting
In a handicap bet, the sportsbook gives one side a notional head start. If one team starts 1.5 goals ahead, that means the other has to win by two or more for a bet on them to pay out. Handicaps are usually expressed to half a goal to remove the possibility of a tie/draw.
Over/Under
In an over/under bet, the sportsbook predicts a total for a particular statistic in a match. It is most often total number of goals scored in a game, but it could be total number of corners, yellow cards, tackles, or assists. We decide whether we think the total will be more (over) or less (under) than the given number and bet accordingly.
Parlay
If you have an opinion on the results of several matches rather than just one, you can combine those predicted outcomes in a parlay. If all the results go your way, the odds are multiplied and you could be looking at a significant payout. You can use our bet calculator to work out your potential parlay returns.
Correct Score
No hidden meaning, this bet is exactly as it sounds. If we want to predict the exact scoreline of a match, we are able to wager on that outcome on soccer betting websites. This is not an easy bet to get right, but that means if we do, our return should be substantial.
First/anytime Goalscorer
When we believe a player will score during a match, we can bet on that outcome. The betting odds for them being the scorer of the first goal of the game will be longer. If we think they will score at any time, our chances increase but the odds shorten.
Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score, also known as BTTS, is an extremely popular bet among fans of soccer betting. This is a simple yes or no wager – do we think both sides in a particular match will score a goal or not? It is a particular favorite of bettors who like to combine several games in a BTTS accumulator.
Draw No Bet
This bet removes the option of the tie (draw). We bet on one side to win and if they duly triumph, we will pick up a payout. If they lose, we lose, too. But if the result of the match is a draw we will get our stake back.
Double Chance
A Double Chance bet enables you to cover two out of the three outcomes of a soccer match. For instance, if we stake our money on “Home team and draw”, we will win the bet unless the away team wins the game.
Scorecast
To win with a Scorecast bet, we need to correctly predict both the first goalscorer and the final score of a match. The soccer odds for scorecasts will always look very attractive – but that’s because there are two outcomes, which makes this a difficult bet to win.
Shots on Target
We can bet on one player having more or fewer shots on target in a match than a number set by the sportsbook. Alternatively, we can bet on the total shots on target of one or both teams. Take care to check out the definition of a shot on target on the soccer betting sites you use – this can sometimes get complicated.
Shots
This bet allows us to wager on one player, one team or both teams having more or fewer shots at goal (whether the shot is on target or not) than a number set by the sportsbook.
Multi-Scorer
If we believe a particular player is going to score more than one goal in a match, this is the market we want. We will be able to find soccer odds about that player scoring two, three or even more goals during the game.
Assists
This is similar to a goalscorer bet, in that we wager on a player to assist – i.e. directly set up – a goal any time in the match. Many soccer betting websites also allow us to bet on a player to assist more or fewer than a certain number of goals over a season.
Transfer Specials
Soccer fans love the buzz generated by rumors of possible player transfers between clubs. Many soccer betting apps now offer the chance to put money on the likelihood of Player X joining Club Y before the end of a particular date, usually the closure of a transfer window.
Yellow/Red Cards
This is an over/under bet with a certain number of points awarded for each booking and sending-off. The sportsbook then sets the total it thinks will be racked up in a particular game. If we think plenty of yellow/red cards will be awarded, we would bet on the over, and vice versa if we think the game will have a lower number than the given total. Booking points for a yellow or red can differ between sportsbooks, so it's always smart to check before betting.
Tackles
Tackling is a particular skill in football. Some players are very good at dispossessing the opposition and we can bet on them carrying out more or fewer tackles in a match than a total set by the sportsbook. We can also bet on a team’s total tackles. It’s always best to check the definition of a tackle on the soccer betting websites you use – this can differ between sportsbooks and stat sites.
Corners
There is a wide variety of bets that can be placed relating to corner kicks. These include betting over or under on the total number of corners in a match, or on one team being awarded more than their opponents, or there being more in the first half than the second.
