Take a look at which sportsbooks they are, and one area that they excel in.

1. BetUK – Providing a broad range of in-play sports betting markets
2. Spreadex – Unique spread betting service with excellent promotions
3. BetStorm – Offers an excellent selection of supported payment methods
4. LivescoreBet – Offering a great set of special betting features and tools

6. Betway – Competitive average payouts of over 95%
7. 888 Sport – Provides fantastic live streaming capabilities

Top 5 Live Betting Sites Reviewed

With the top 10 best live betting sites listed above, we thought it prudent to go a little more in-depth with the top 5. That’s why we have conducted reviews of these sportsbooks below for you to read. They exist as the most recommended platforms to sign up to and place live sports wagers at. Here, we will highlight why they stand out and what we like and dislike about each one.

1. BetUK – Best Range Of Live Markets

Anyone who intends to experience live betting should be able to access a variety of markets for it. This is precisely what you will get as a member of the BetUK sportsbook. Clicking on the ‘In-Play’ link will allow you to see the various events and markets. And you can see the events that are ‘Live Right Now’ by using that sub-link. Over 8,000 events are provided in live betting every month at the sportsbook, and there is ab average payout of 92.41% from these.

You’ll find that the biggest in-play markets are present for football and tennis. The sportsbook also provides frequent price boosts that you can readily take advantage of. Meanwhile, BetUK has a fantastic mobile app to use while you’re on the move, too. This is downloadable for Android and iOS devices, offering in-play betting from any location. Something else to highlight about the live betting section is the ‘Instant Betting’ options. These are bets that will be settled in the immediate future.

2. Spreadex – Best Live Betting Odds

Spreadex has become known in the gambling world for its unique spread betting service. Yet even though this is the case, it does also provide fixed odds betting as well. Combining both of these features together makes it an impressionable and inviting platform. At the same time, Spreadex has a plethora of special promotions that you can claim to provide an enhanced experience. This includes the welcome offer of £40 in bonus funds of various natures.

It is a fantastic sportsbook for live betting opportunities. And this is heightened by the fact that it serves as one of several live streaming betting sites as well. This means that you can also stream and watch various sporting events through the sportsbook. You won’t be restricted by any minimum deposit requirements at Spreadex, either. To top everything off, the bookmaker has over 20 years of experience. And longevity always speaks volumes to sports bettors.

3. BetStorm – Best Variety of Payment Methods

It is often difficult to find an online sportsbook that supports a number of payment methods. Considering that depositing and withdrawing are both processes that players need to do, this can be a disappointment. That’s not the case where BetStorm is concerned, though. You will be able to choose from a variety of different banking options there. There is more to this sportsbook than its payment methods, though.

It incorporates an ideal cashback perk into its site for you to benefit from as a player. And once big events roll around, it provides exciting promotions that you can use to enhance your wagers on them. The in-play section is pure excellence in itself, offering various extra features to experience. They include the multi-view function, giving you a much more immersive setup. You can also create accumulators easily and request a specific wager via the Super Bet feature of the site.

4. LiveScoreBet – Best for Mobile Betting

Just reading the name of this online sportsbook gives you the idea that it excels in providing live betting content. The lobby for this is simple to access, featuring sports like horse racing, tennis, football, basketball, cricket, and so on. And it is in the live betting section that you will also be able to make use of various effective tools. The cash out function, for example, is on hand for you to utilise. And prior to this, you have the chance to make use of a bet builder tool.

The big-time events are also live streamed at LiveScore Bet, giving you the chance to watch them through the sportsbook. Even though it is a new online bookie, it offers a highly friendly website design. And this allows you to move between sections swiflty and concisely. LiveScore Bet also incorporates a selection of high-quality betting markets and associated odds. It provides its services to mobile gamblers too, with downloadable apps being available.

5. BoyleSports – Best for Live Streaming

BoyleSports has more than 50 years of sports betting experience to bring forward. Not only does it serve as a sportsbook, but as one of various live casino betting sites as well. Alongside the in-play options, you have the chance to experience live streaming of horse racing at the platform. It also brings a myriad of inbuilt betting options and features to benefit you. If you become a VIP player at the sportsbook, then you will really enjoy some exceptional perks.

Customer support is on hand on a 24/7 basis, while a native mobile app is available for iOS and Android handsets. Cash out can be used when engaging in live betting, allowing you to end a bet before the match finishes. The site launched its bet builder function in 2019, and this proved popular from the first moment. Holding an account at the BoyleSports site allows you to also get involved in casino gaming, lotteries, bingo, poker and much more.

What is Live Betting and How Does It Work?

Live betting, or in-play betting, allows players to place bets during a game, not just before it starts. Odds change based on game events, making it a fast-paced betting option. Many betting sites offer live betting, which has grown in popularity due to its dynamic nature and the expanded markets it covers.

Theoretically, a live bettor is able to adapt their strategies upon seeing what is happening during a game. Live betting provides a huge variety of market options but requires quick decision-making while keeping responsible gambling in mind at all times.

Some in-play betting sites also offer live streaming, letting you watch and bet on games in real-time.

Pros and Cons of In-Play Betting

So, why would you choose to experience live betting over standard pre-match betting? Let’s take a look at some advantages and disadvantages:

How We Rank In-Play Betting Sites

Creating our collection of the top online live betting sites is not something done at random. We actually have a team which reviews these sites from top to bottom. When reviewing the sportsbooks, we seek out specific elements that we want to see and be able to utilise. And this is how we provide them with a ranking. Once we have all the relevant information about them, we are able to make a list of the best live betting sites. The criteria we search for include:

Best Sports for Live Betting in 2024

Some sports and their associated events are much more ideal for betting on than others. Indeed, there are some sports that are not included in live betting at all. And as it happens, different sportsbooks offer in-play wagering on different sports in general. Yet despite this, most of them have the most popular options for you to wager on in a live setting.

Some of these are quite obvious, such as football or betting sites with live horse racing wagering. But you may find that a couple of others that are ideal for betting on in in-play mode are surprising. Have a look below at some of the best live betting sports available today.

Live eSports Betting Sites

It may not be readily obvious that eSports would be perfect for live betting. Yet the eSports world has grown considerably over the past few years. And huge live tournaments take place throughout the year that sports bettors can wager on as they take place. Games like Call of Duty, League of Legends, Dota 2 and CS:GO are all involved in such competitions. And there are various in-play betting markets that you can stake money on as these events play out. Most platforms can be considered live eSports betting sites today, because of the great popularity this sport has with bettors.

Live Cricket Betting Sites

Cricket is another one that potentially wouldn’t be at the top of everyone’s list. Yet it does offer a fantastic game for live gambling. Live cricket betting sites allow you to back a number of exciting markets. They include options like the Top Wicket Taker, Dismissals, 1^st Ball/1^st Over, Totals and many others. Some of the sportsbooks also offer live streaming of cricket matches taking place, bringing an even better experience your way.

Betting Sites with Live Horse Racing

It is common knowledge that a horse racing meeting can feature a large number of races throughout the day. This gives you the chance to place bets on your favourite events. The races are often quick-paced, so you’ll need to be on you’re a-game for this kind of live betting. That being said, betting sites with live horse racing are very common when it comes to the UK market. This is probably due to the fact that horse racing is a popular sport in itself across the country.

Betting Sites with Live Football Streaming

Without a doubt, football is the most popular sport for betting on overall. Therefore, there is little wonder that it also stands out as an ideal live betting option, too. Football betting sites offers a plethora of markets to choose from when comes to in-play football betting. This includes the Next Goal to Be Scored, the Correct Score, Total Goals from either team, Both Teams to Score, and so on. And betting sites with live football streaming allow you to watch the matches as well!

Tennis Live Sport Betting Sites

If you’re much more of a single-player bettor, then live tennis betting is the way to go. Many things can turn around a football game or a cricket game, due to there being so many players within each team. In tennis, live bets occur between the two on-court players. Watching the first couple of sets can give you an insight into how things are potentially likely to go. And while the diversity of in-play tennis betting markets is not quite as large as other sports, they can be highly rewarding. Timing is quite crucial with tennis betting of this nature though, due to how intense it is.

Live betting isn’t something that is only provided to desktop gamblers. Instead, it can be accessed via a mobile device. And this gives way to the best live betting app options as well. These can be downloaded from your favoured sportsbook, allowing you to live bet while on the move. With this being the case, you need never miss out on another bet again. Of course, this makes it even more beneficial for live bettors, because that’s a very in-the-moment activity to engage in. From the Live Score betting app through to the app provided by 888 Sport, there is one of these to support everyone.

How to Make a Profit from Live Betting

Whether you’re using betting sites with live streaming or a standard live betting platform, you may want some hints and tips on how to proceed with it for success. Here, we have highlighted some in-play betting tips to follow. You can put these into action at live casino betting sites and try to increase your own advantages.

How to Sign Up to an Online Live Betting Site

So, how do you go about signing up to an online bookmaker offering live betting? The process is a simple one. Just follow the few steps outlined below to do this successfully. We’re going to use Spreadex in this example, but the process remains roughly the same from site to site.

Step One – Register Your Details

Registering for a sportsbook account is the first step to take. To begin this process, you click on the ‘Join’ button and fill out the necessary information. This includes your name, address, date of birth and more.

Step Two – Verify Your Account

The general consensus at most online UK sportsbooks is that players need to be verified before being able to deposit or place wagers. Thus, certain checks need to be carried out. You can also submit details of your identity with copies of ID documents, such as a passport or driving licence.

Step Three – Make a Deposit

Once your account is verified, you can navigate to the cashier page of the platform. There, you will see the available supported payment methods and can proceed with entering an amount to deposit. Complete the transaction to have funds added to your sportsbook account.

Step Four – Place a Live Sports Bet

With funds in your account, you can move to the In-Play betting section of an online sportsbook. There, you will see all available and upcoming live events, and you can choose which one(s) you want to bet on. Select the odds you want to back and then enter an amount to wager on that outcome. Add it to your betting slip and confirm the wager.

Final Word

Live betting is one of those activities that always brings a high level of entertainment. It differs significantly enough from pre-match betting, and while it does pose a riskier type of wagering to get involved in, it is still enjoyable. Various tools and promotions can be brought into use while live betting, and this helps to provide an extra appeal. We hope that our guide will direct you to the best sites for live betting and that you have fun with this.
