Volleyball Betting Guide 📝

To Win

(Match & Set)

  • Exactly as it says on the tin, this market is for punters to bet on which team they think will win either a set within a match, or the match itself. Set betting is more fast paced as numerous sets make up a whole match.

Handicap Betting

  • Handicap betting levels the playing field when one team is considered a heavy favourite over another. It does so by offering a handicap on the number of sets in the winning margin.

    As an example, if a team has a -2.5 handicap, a bet on them will only win if they win a 3-set game in straight sets, while the +2.5 handicap bet will win if the team pick up one set, even if they lose the match.

Total Points

(Match & Set)

Bettors can bet on the total number of points to be scored within a set or a match. There are normally lines offered for this market, such as betting on there to be over or under 80 points in the match.

Correct Score

(Match & Set)

It is possible to bet on the correct score of a volleyball game, with all of the potential outcomes listed below:

Team 1

Team 2

3-0

0-3

Score betting can also apply to sets, providing a wide range of potential scores, there are so many possible scores in a first to 21 point set that the odds are increased when betting on it, such is the unpredictability of it.
