Football is the most popular sport to bet on in the UK, and it is worth an estimated £1.4bn to the industry.

Gambling and football are becoming synonymous, with shirt sponsorship from bookmakers worth around £47m a season in the Premier League alone.

In fact, betting sites sponsor seventeen of the twenty-four Championship sides and nine of the twenty Premier League teams.

You can now place bets online, in-store, or on mobile, but which betting sites provide the best football betting experience?

Of course, both choices are subjective, and it is always close with plenty of worthy bookmakers out there.

bet365

It is hard to look past the gambling giant that is bet365 when it comes to betting on football.

bet365 offers one of the best football betting products, with a massive range of leagues, markets, customised bets, live streaming, and other innovative features.

bet365 easily has one of the largest selection of markets for punters that like to search for value in both obscure and popular markets.

They utilise a user-friendly design on both desktop and mobile, offering a stable and reliable service even at peak footballing hours.

However, you will not find a big range of promotions or offers for existing customers, but you will find an excellent 24/7 customer service if you run into any issues.

Betfair

The Betfair sportsbook and exchange come into the top two for a number of reasons.

Of course, this is a subjective choice, but Betfair often offers the industry's best odds on both their sportsbook and exchange.

Betfair offers a large range of football leagues and markets to satisfy most punters' needs as well as daily odds boosts and regular promotions for new and existing customers.

You can also use their innovative “Acca Edge” feature, which offers lower odds to protect your bet if it loses by just one selection.

Try out their exchange and sportsbook, with both offering great football betting experiences.
