Betting on Volleyball in the United Kingdom

Strategies on Volleyball Betting 

When you are betting on sporting events, there are plenty of different strategies that you can take into consideration and use to try and stay ahead of the bookmakers and your fellow punters. Luckily, volleyball betting is still much smaller than other betting fields, and that alone can be enough to give you an advantage if you are willing to put some time into researching your chosen area.

Some of our favourite volleyball betting strategies to use include:

1.     Research 

It goes without saying that research and betting on sporting events come hand in hand. We would highly recommend that you research the teams that you are betting on so that you can get an idea of their skills and weaknesses, as that will help you to decide whether or not you are placing the right bet. 

Try to remember that going with the majority isn’t always the best option when placing bets, as a lot of your fellow punters will simply be betting on their favourite teams and hoping for an outcome. If you start looking at statistics, you should have an advantage over them.

2.     Social Media

When you are doing your research, we would recommend that you see how each of the players are performing on social media. Their social media accounts will probably give you an idea of whether or not any of them are currently suffering from injuries, as a lot of athletes like to share their recovery to educate their audience. If just one person on a volleyball team is suffering, then the whole team can be affected by that and it can sway the outcome of the entire game.

On social media, you should also be able to see how well-bonded the team is. If there are any underlying negative emotions between players, they could quite easily show themselves on the court.

3.     The Volleyball Schedule

Before you start placing your bets, you will have to decide which volleyball events you would like to bet on. Naturally, volleyball takes place throughout the year, but there will always be some events that are more prestigious than others. 

The biggest priority on the volleyball calendar would have to be the events that are held at the Olympics. Naturally, athletes focus their attention on these storied games as soon as they know that they are on the horizon. Next in line would have to be World Cup Volleyball, as that acts as the qualifier for the Olympics and is equally as important. 

If you want to bet on big events, then we would recommend starting with those. If you are happy to start betting elsewhere, then you should take a look at Grand Prix Volleyball, World League Volleyball and the abundance of international leagues that can be found around the world.

4.     The Team Dynamic

As we have mentioned briefly, any negative emotions that can be found among teammates will reveal themselves on the court, so you should avoid betting on a team if you know that these are present. 

Naturally, a volleyball team has to work as a unit. They have to be able to read what everyone else on the team is going to do, and they have to be able to react to their actions. We would recommend looking at training schedules and trying to find out what sort of training your chosen team has been doing. 

5.     Double Your Money 

If you feel confident, then you should also take a look to see whether or not any betting accumulators are available for your chosen event. This should allow you to bet on a range of different volleyball matches, many of which will be part of the same league. For example, you could bet on the winners of three different games. 

Try to remember that accumulators are risky, and you will lose your money if just one of your chosen teams loses. But, if you bet on predictable winners, then you can expect to gain more money than you would by betting on just a single predictable winner. 

6.     Placing Live Bets 

In the world of sport, whether or not you should place live bets is often debated. We would recommend that you give it a try to see whether or not it is for you, but it can be incredibly time-consuming. To bet on a live event, you will have to be paying close attention to it. This can also limit the number of events that you can bet on, as well as where in the world they are.

Naturally, when you go to place a live bet you have an immediate advantage because you can see how well or how poorly a team is playing. This is especially true if it turns out that one of the players on the court is playing with an injury, and it can be used to accurately predict outcomes. 

You should always try to remember that the world of volleyball doesn’t give athletes time to recover. This means that athletes are incredibly unlikely to get through the year without an injury of one kind or another and live betting can help you to see these injuries and place your bets based on them.

Try to remember that volleyball matches can also be turned around quite quickly. Just because one team wins the first set does not mean that they will win the match. Try to really look at how each member of each team is playing and analyse what is happening on the court before you move to place your bet.

Conclusion

Volleyball is a fascinating sport, and it comes as no surprise to us that it is growing around the world. Bookmakers understand this, and they are now offering bets throughout the year that cover everything from the Olympics to small domestic leagues.

If you follow our advice, then we are certain that you will be able to win some money by betting on volleyball. Make sure that you research the teams, keep your eye on the schedule and try to work out whether or not anyone is playing with an injury.

It’s incredibly easy to get emotional if you are betting on live events, and this can lead to poor judgement. If you know that you will struggle to analyse what is happening on the court, then we would recommend that you place your bets before the match starts. You can always place another bet while the game is in play.
