The Ultimate Guide to Premier League Betting Markets at WSB
Explore the Best Premier League Betting Markets for the New Season | World Sports Betting
The Premier League is back, and with it comes another season of goals, title races, relegation battles, derby drama and plenty of opportunities to get involved with the action.
At World Sports Betting, football fans can go far beyond simply picking a winner. From traditional Match Result bets to Bet Builders, goalscorer markets, corners, bookings, handicaps and early payout features, there are markets to suit almost every way of reading a game.
Whether you follow the Premier League religiously, enjoy the PSL, La Liga, Champions League or international football, understanding the different markets can help you make more informed betting choices.
Here is our guide to some of the most popular football betting markets and features available at WSB for the new season.
1. Match Result – The Classic Football Bet
Let’s start with the market everyone knows.
Match Result, also known as 1X2, allows you to predict the outcome of the match after 90 minutes plus injury time.
- 1 – Home win
- X – Draw
- 2 – Away win
For example, if Arsenal are playing at home against Liverpool, you can back Arsenal to win, Liverpool to win or the match to finish level.
It’s simple, familiar and remains one of the most popular football bets.
2. Outright Betting – Who Will Win the League?
Want to look beyond the weekend’s fixtures?
Outright markets allow you to bet on what will happen over an entire competition or season.
Popular Premier League outright markets can include:
- Premier League winner
- Top four finish
- Relegation
- Team to finish in a particular position
- Top goalscorer
- Player awards
- Other season-long specials
This is where you can take a longer-term view and back your predictions before the season unfolds.

3. Double Chance – Cover Two Results
If you’re confident a team won’t lose but aren’t convinced they’ll win, Double Chance gives you two possible winning outcomes.
The three main options are:
- 1X – Home win or draw
- X2 – Away win or draw
- 12 – Either team wins, but not a draw
It can be particularly interesting when a strong side is playing away from home or when two evenly matched teams meet.
4. 1 UP – Get Paid Early When Your Team Goes Ahead
One of WSB’s standout football features is 1 UP.
If your team takes a 1-0 lead, your qualifying bet can be paid out as a winner, regardless of what happens afterwards, subject to the applicable market terms.
That means you could celebrate your team’s first goal knowing your bet has already been settled as a winner.

5. Bet Builder – Build Your Perfect Match
Want to combine your favourite predictions from the same match?
Bet Builder lets you combine multiple selections from a single fixture into one customised bet. WSB’s Bet Builder can bring together team and player markets, including selections such as match result, goals, goalscorers, cards and corners where available. (sportsnews.worldsportsbetting.co.za)
For example, you could build a bet around:
- Arsenal to win
- Over 2.5 goals
- Bukayo Saka to have a shot on target
- Arsenal to have 5+ corners
The idea is simple: build your own view of how the match will play out.
6. Early Cash Out
Football doesn’t always go according to plan.
That’s where Early Cash Out can be useful.
If the match is moving in your favour, you may have the option to settle your bet before the final whistle and lock in the available cash-out value.
It can be useful when:
- Your team is ahead
- A goalscorer has already scored
- Your selections are looking strong
- The game is approaching the final stages
Cash-out availability and values can vary by bet and match.
7. Partial Cash Out
Don’t necessarily want to cash out your entire bet?
Partial Cash Out gives you the opportunity to take some money off the table while leaving the remainder of your bet running, where available.
It’s another way to manage your bet during a live match.

8. Both Teams to Score – Will They Both Find the Net?
BTTS is one of football’s most popular goal markets.
You simply predict whether both teams will score at least once.
BTTS – Yes
Both teams need to score.
A 2-1, 1-1 or 3-2 result would qualify.
BTTS – No
At least one team must fail to score.
A 1-0, 2-0 or 0-0 would qualify.
It’s particularly popular when two attacking teams meet or when statistics suggest both sides are regularly finding the net. (sportsnews.worldsportsbetting.co.za)
9. Total Goals – Over or Under
Don’t want to pick the winner? Predict the number of goals instead.
Total Goals allows you to bet on whether the match will produce more or fewer goals than a selected line.
Popular options include:
- Over/Under 0.5
- Over/Under 1.5
- Over/Under 2.5
- Over/Under 3.5
- And more
For example, Over 2.5 Goals requires at least three goals in the match.
This market is particularly useful when you have a strong opinion about the expected tempo and attacking potential of a fixture. (sportsnews.worldsportsbetting.co.za)
10. Handicaps & Asian Handicaps
Handicap betting can level the playing field when there is a perceived difference in quality between two teams.
A handicap effectively gives one side a virtual advantage or disadvantage before the match begins.
Asian Handicap betting takes this concept further, with handicap lines such as:
- -0.5
- -1
- -1.5
- +0.5
- +1
- And more
These markets can appeal to punters who believe the favourite will win by a particular margin or that the underdog can keep the game competitive.
11. Half Time / Full Time
Think you know how the game will develop?
Half Time/Full Time asks you to predict the result at half-time and the final result.
Examples include:
- Arsenal / Arsenal
- Arsenal / Draw
- Draw / Arsenal
- Draw / Draw
- Manchester City / Manchester City
It’s a more specific prediction than simply backing the match result and can offer bigger odds when you correctly predict the game’s progression.
12. Correct Score
For the ultimate scoreline prediction, there’s Correct Score.
You need to predict the exact final result.
For example:
Arsenal 2-1 Manchester City
If that’s the final score, your selection wins.
Correct Score is naturally a more difficult prediction than simply picking a winner, but that’s part of its appeal for punters chasing bigger prices. (sportsnews.worldsportsbetting.co.za)
13. Goalscorer Markets
Fancy a particular player to make the difference?
Goalscorer markets allow you to back players to find the net.
Depending on the fixture and available markets, options can include:
- First Goalscorer
- Anytime Goalscorer
- Last Goalscorer
- Player to score two or more
- Player goals markets
These markets are ideal for punters who follow individual player form, starting line-ups and scoring records.
14. Player Performance Markets
Football betting has become increasingly focused on individual performances.
Depending on the fixture, WSB markets can include selections around:
- Player goals
- Player cards
- Player performance combinations
These markets allow you to build bets around what you expect a particular player to do rather than simply predicting the result.
15. Bookings & Cards
Some matches are guaranteed to have a bit of bite.
Bookings markets allow you to predict the number of cards or player/team disciplinary outcomes.
Popular options can include:
- Total cards
- Team cards
- Over/Under card lines
Derbies and high-stakes matches can be particularly interesting for this type of betting.
16. Corners
Corners can provide a completely different angle on a football match.
Instead of focusing on goals, corner markets allow you to predict how many corners will be awarded.
Popular options include:
- Total corners
- Team corners
- Over/Under corners
- First team to reach a corner total
- Corner handicaps
A team that dominates possession and spends plenty of time attacking can create plenty of corner opportunities. WSB’s football betting guide highlights corner totals as one of the key alternative football markets. (sportsnews.worldsportsbetting.co.za)
17. Half-Time Markets
You don’t always have to wait for 90 minutes.
Half-time betting allows you to focus exclusively on the opening 45 minutes.
Markets can include:
- Half-Time Result
- Half-Time Double Chance
- Half-Time Goals
- Half-Time Correct Score
- Half-Time/Full-Time
This can be particularly useful when you have a strong opinion about how a team starts matches.
18. First Half & Second Half Goals
Want to predict when the goals will arrive?
You can look at markets covering:
- First-half total goals
- Second-half total goals
- Team goals by half
- Which half will contain more goals
- Goal timings
These markets can be particularly appealing when analysing teams that tend to start quickly or finish strongly.
19. Team Goals
Instead of predicting the total number of goals in the match, focus on one team.
For example:
Manchester United Over 1.5 Team Goals
Your bet depends only on Manchester United’s goals, regardless of how many their opponent scores.
It’s another useful market when you expect a dominant attacking performance from one side.
20. Winning Margin
How convincingly will a team win?
Winning Margin markets allow you to predict the difference between the teams at full-time.
Depending on the available market, options can include:
- Home win by 1
- Home win by 2
- Home win by 3+
- Away win by 1
- Away win by 2
- Away win by 3+
It can be an interesting alternative to simply backing the match winner.
21. Specials – Look Beyond the Match
Football betting isn’t only about what happens on the pitch.
Specials can cover longer-term events and off-field developments, depending on what WSB has priced.
These can include markets around:
- Transfers
- Manager appointments
- Manager sackings
- Player awards
- League finishes
- Top goalscorers
- Team achievements
- Season milestones
- Tournament winners
These markets allow you to put your football knowledge to work across the entire season.
22. Accumulators & Multiples
Why stop at one match?
You can combine multiple selections from different fixtures into an accumulator or multiple, with the potential return increasing as you add selections.
For example:
- Arsenal to win
- Liverpool to win
- Real Madrid to win
- Bayern Munich to win
Every selection needs to be successful for a standard accumulator to win, so choosing your legs carefully is essential.
23. Live Betting – Bet While the Action Unfolds
Football can change in seconds.
With live betting, you can follow a match and place bets as the game develops, where markets are available.
A red card, early goal, injury or tactical change can completely alter the complexion of a fixture.
Live markets can include:
- Match Result
- Next Goal
- Total Goals
- Corners
- Cards
- Half-time/second-half markets
Always check the specific market rules before placing a live bet, as prices and availability can change quickly.
