The UK's Top Online Betting Sites for Sports in 2024

Football

Considering how much the average Brit loves footy, it's not surprising that the beautiful game is one of the most popular sports betting options in the UK

Horse Racing

Queueing up to get your real moneywagers placed at a local horse racing track in time is (or at least can be) a thing of the past!

Basketball

Whether NBA, NCAA or British hoops, there's always plenty of basketball events to bet on across the season - it's a slam dunk!

Motorsports

High octane and high risk, wagering on racing at betting sites is one that will appeal to all the adrenaline junkies out there

Cycling

An exciting test of stamina and skill, races across the United Kingdom (and all over the world) are even more fun to watch when they come with a big money win

NFL

Hit and miss with folks in Britain, but the Super Bowl is the culmination of a long, hard season and is always a talking point in the office or down at the pub

Golf

Perhaps the ultimate game of skill, golf leader boards can change drastically in a matter of hours - this makes for some seriously up and down sports betting

Rugby

However you feel about rugby (trying to get league and union fans to agree is often very difficult!), we're sure you'll love getting a slice of action betting online

Tennis

With all sorts of different events - played on grass, artificial and clay courts - betting on tennis is a tricky one to master, but still very enjoyable

Baseball

The games may be long, and it's certainly America's game rather than the UK's, but the World Series is among the most high profile sporting events to date

Boxing

Sometimes matches last close to an hour, other times they're over in a matter of seconds. As long as your fighter wins, you probably won't care which!

Cricket

Invented in England but (arguably!) perfected in India, cricket is always an interesting way to enjoy sports betting and there are several big-name events in 2024

Snooker

A game of wits as much as it is one of physical skill, it's almost too much fun watching the player you're backing hammer another by snookering them

Darts

Trying to resist the temptation to say that "I could do better down at my local!" when someone misses the treble 20 aside, this is a solid activity to bet on

Chess

Not exactly a sport so much as it is a game, although chess fanatics out there might disagree with us on that one, but still a heck of a lot of fun to bet on

Motorbike Racing

However you feel about rugby (trying to get league and union fans to agree is often very difficult!), we're sure you'll love getting a slice of action betting online

Bowls

More slow-paced than many of the other games on this list, but still one that can end with thrills and chills if it all comes down to the wire

Ice Hockey

With action in the United Kingdom (EIHL) and USA (NHL), there's plenty of ice hockey action to enjoy throughout the year

Fantasy Football - Premier League

Is the UK flavour, and is definitely a strangely compulsive activity to enjoy with friends or colleagues

Fantasy Football - NFL

Read up on building the perfect NFL Fantasy team with key players from the season, and learn how betting works on virtual games.

E-Sports

Watching strangers play video games might sound like an odd way to pass the time, let alone betting on it, but its popularity continues to grow in 2024!

Politics

If there's one thing that spices up all of that 24 hour news coverage as the next general or presidential election draws near, it's having some cash on the line
