Declan Murphy covers the Premier League betting markets that Irish punters love most.
The Premier League remains the most-bet league in Ireland. Here's how to approach it smartly.
Match Result (1X2) - Most straightforward - Home advantage matters less than before - Draw is often undervalued
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) - Perfect for open, attacking games - Check recent form for both attacks AND defences - Weather can impact (wet = more goals usually)
Asian Handicaps - Eliminates the draw option - Better value for favourites - Take time to understand quarter lines
What I've noticed: - Underdogs winning more away games - Late goals up 15% vs last season - Clean sheets down across the board - Corners markets more predictable
Best odds: Betfair Exchange Best markets: Bet365 Best accumulators: Paddy Power Best promos: BoyleSports
Remember: Not broadcast live in UK/Ireland Use audio commentary + in-play betting for these fixtures.
