For a newcomer to betting, let alone online betting, then one may wonder where the best place is to start. Football is naturally one of the largest markets for online sportsbooks, and is the sport which makes people sign up with a bookie, such is its popularity. There are some basics of football betting to take a look at, which can not only help you ease into the world of football betting, but also can help you start making a profit as quickly as possible.
You can’t fail to look at a bookmaker and see the wealth of betting opportunities available for football markets. You will have an idea where to start, and it will probably be with your favourite team. Naturally you will want your team to win and backing them seems like a pretty sound idea. This is a lot of people’s basic introduction into the world of online football betting, as it is an easy entry point. So, all that you need to do from that point is find your team in the Sportsbook coupon and select them to add to your betting slip. You enter your stake and confirm the bet, and you have just made your first wager.
So... that is a very basic introduction to football betting, as you have not taken into any consideration the prices on offer at your bookmaker. Did the bet you make represent good value or not? As a fan of that team you will have a good idea of whether they are supposed to win or not against their opposition. If they are, then the odds will have been low and you will stand to make only a small amount of profit, meaning that you staked a lot in relation to what winnings you will get. If, however they aren’t expected to win, then you will be hoping for a big upset to make you happy, as your odds will have been longer, and there much more valuable to you, if your team does win. Always weigh up the risk of the stake against the potential returns before betting on football, or any sports for that matter, as it should never be overlooked. Always make sure that you are never betting more than you can afford, too. So, what if your team is expected to win and you don’t want to wager too big a stake, and the odds really are not going to give you much back? This is where some basics of football betting start to get a little more interesting.
Best sports books will present a lot more markets for football betting than just picking an outright winner. Take a look in the extra bets section next to a match and you will see plenty more options such as First Goalscorer, Anytime Goalscorer, Handicap Betting,Correct Score, Winning Margin and much, much more. If your outright odds aren’t anything spectacular, then it is well worth dipping into these markets to find something of much better value. There are some good prices to be had around here, and do constitute the basics of football betting. You make your selections just as you would with your outright winner bets, but because these alternative markets are a little more specialised in terms of picking a correct outcome, there are much better prices to be had around. But, if you are happy with accumulating a little profit at a time, then stick with backing your favourite team through thick and thin.

Ligue 1 Preview: Monaco, Saint-Etienne need to improve
A home loss to relegation-threatened Valenciennes in December was followed by a 1-1 draw at Montpellier last week.
And champions PSG capitalised on the slip-up made by Claudio Ranieri's side, as they surged five points clear at the top of the table with victory at Ajaccio last time out.
Toulouse are in good Ligue 1 form, unbeaten in six, and won 1-0 at Bordeaux on Saturday - a result that lifted them to 10th in the table.
Monaco striker Radamel Falcao has battled injury issues this season and has scored just once in his last four matches for the club, with Ranieri desperate for the Colombian forward to find form.
PSG host sixth-placed Nantes on Sunday and will be buoyed by their 3-1 Coupe de la Ligue win at Bordeaux on Tuesday.
Goals in the last five minutes from Adrien Rabiot and Blaise Matuidi helped the capital club into the last four, as their bid for a domestic treble gathered pace.
PSG won 2-1 at Nantes earlier this season thanks to Ezequiel Lavezzi's late strike and will enjoy returning to Parc des Princes, where they have not lost in the league since November 2012.
Third-placed Lille are now just two points behind Monaco and take their outstanding record to Saint-Etienne on Friday.
Lille have conceded just 10 goals in 20 Ligue 1 matches and will hope to make the most of Saint-Etienne's humiliating Coupe de France exit at fourth-tier Cannes on Tuesday.
Saint-Etienne, who sit fourth, had the chance to win the penalty shootout that followed a 1-1 draw, but lost their nerve as Cannes celebrated a famous triumph.
Marseille host troubled Valenciennes on Saturday, with the latter facing the prospect of being administratively relegated at the end of the season if their financial problems continue.
They might drop to Ligue 2 on form anyway, but victories in their last two league matches have boosted spirits and seen them rise to 18th.
Other fixtures on Saturday see Bastia take on Bordeaux, Lorient battle Guingamp and Nice face Ajaccio.
There are also matches between Rennes and Evian TG, and Sochaux and Montpellier, while a slowly-improving Lyon hit the road to face Reims on Sunday.

Coupe de la Ligue: PSG head to Bordeaux, Lyon host Marseille
The Ligue 1 leaders have already beaten Francis Gillot's side twice this season and another victory at Stade Chaban-Delmas would see them progress to the last four.
Not since May 2011 have Bordeaux beaten the Parisian giants and they come into the game on the back of a 1-0 home defeat against Toulouse.
PSG had to come from behind to beat bottom-of-the-table Ajaccio 2-1 on Saturday, with Blaise Matuidi scoring the winner.
France midfielder Matuidi was also on target when the Ligue 1 champions won 2-0 at Bordeaux in September and Laurent Blanc's men were 2-1 victors in the Trophee des champions back in August.
The other three quarter-finals will be played on Wednesday night and the pick of the ties is a repeat of the 2012 final between Marseille and Lyon.
Lyon have home advantage against Jose Anigo's side, who came back from two goals down to draw 2-2 at Stade Gerland in Ligue 1 last month.
Marseille beat Lyon 1-0 after extra-time in this competition two years ago, so the home side will have a score to settle.
Troyes are the only team from outside the top flight remaining in the competition and the Ligue 2 outfit will be looking to spring a surprise when they host Evian.
Nice won 2-0 at Nantes in Ligue 1 earlier this month in the Coupe de France and the two sides lock horns once again at Stade de la Beaujoire in the last eight.

Weligton targets win for Malaga
With this weekend's fixtures denoting the midway point of the campaign there is little to separate the two teams, with 11th-placed Malaga above their opponents on goal difference only.
Malaga were beaten by Atletico Madrid last time out while Levante have lost their last two matches in La Liga, and Weligton is keen to put some fresh air between themselves and their rivals.
"A win is fundamental to us," the Brazilian defender told the club's official website.
"We've got a difficult away match on today, and following that we've got some tough games coming up at the start of the second round.
"However we're solely focused on our next match against Levante at the moment, and gaining three important points this weekend."
However, Weligton fears defensive woes may not help the team, with Vitorino Antunes and Marcos Angeleri suspended while Jesus Gamez and Eliseu are battling injuries.
He said: "We're all hoping that our team-mates recover in time for today's match, as they're important members of the team.
"However if they're not match-fit in time, the coach has a 'plan B' and we're all ready to get out there and play.
"We can end the first round of the league season with 23 points, so a win on today is crucial."
Levante were in Copa del Rey action in midweek, playing out a goalless draw with Rayo Vallecano in the opening leg of their last-16 clash.
Although their aim remains to keep away from the relegation zone in La Liga, goalkeeper Javi Jimenez admits he is enjoying their cup run and the added confidence it brings to the squad.
"We remain fully focused on the league but the thinking is that a cup run brings all-round benefits as well," he said.
"It is a great competition and the further we go, the much better it is for all of us."

Serie A Preview: Cagliari v Juventus
Juve currently share that record with Roma, who kicked off the season with 10 straight victories, but a 3-0 triumph over the men from the Italian capital last weekend has teed them up to surpass that marker.
Antonio Conte's men have not been short of goals during their winning streak, netting an average of 2.6 per match, and success against Roma put the reigning champions eight points clear at the top of the table.
However, Juventus will be wary heading into this tie as Cagliari held the Turin outfit to a 1-1 draw when the sides last met in May.
Victor Ibarbo put Cagliari ahead at Juventus Stadium, before Mirko Vucinic spared the hosts' blushes just after the hour mark.
That said, the head-to-head record between these clubs reads in favour of Juve, who have not tasted defeat in the last seven league meetings.
The Sardinians currently sit 12th and have carved out a reputation as draw specialists in recent weeks, with five of their last six games finishing all-square.
Cagliari's last defeat came more than two months ago, when they went down 2-1 at Verona on November 3.
Conte knows his Juve side cannot afford to take their eyes off the prize in the pursuit of a third consecutive Serie A title, and has vowed not to get carried away following the win against Roma.
"Our victory against Roma was a step forward," he said. "This is all it is.
"There is an entire second half of the season to go. Anything can happen from here to the end of the campaign."
Juventus will be without the suspended Andrea Barzagli for the trip to Cagliari, while Nene is expected to miss out for the hosts.

La Liga Preview: Espanyol v Real Madrid
With Barca and Atleti playing each other on Saturday, Carlo Ancelotti's side will make ground on one or both of them if they can extend their unbeaten run over Espanyol to 12 games.
Espanyol have endured an inconsistent season under Javier Aguirre so far with only six league wins to their name, although one of those did come against Atletico at Estadi Cornella El Prat in October.
The Mexican may not be on the sidelines though after being sent to the stands during last week's 1-0 defeat to Osasuna, if he is found guilty of abusing the referee he could face a touchline ban starting this weekend.
Stopping Real Madrid will be difficult given the 32-time league winners have amassed 31 goals in their last eight league matches, with forward Cristiano Ronaldo getting 12 of those to take him to the top of the goalscoring charts in Spain with 20 for the campaign.
The Portugal international is one of the most in-form players across the continent and is odds-on favourite to lift the FIFA Ballon D'Or on Monday after his displays in 2013.
Real are unbeaten in eight games in the league and Ancelotti is demanding a win from his players when they travel to Catalunya, although he is unsure which result he would like to see emerge from the Estadio Vicente Calderon.
"It is hard to think about what the best result (between Atletico and Barca) for us would be," the Italian said ahead of the match.
"They cannot both lose, but neither can they both win. We have to win to make up points with Barcelona or Atletico."
Espanyol have earned draws in their last two meetings with Real, however they come into the game on the back of consecutive defeats in the league and Wednesday's first-leg Copa del Rey tie with second -tier Alcorcon.
Raphael Varane and Sami Khedira (both knee) are the only players unavailable for the visitors but Aguirre will be without his captain Sergio Garcia through suspension and David Lopez after he picked up a thigh injury in midweek.
