Legal online soccer betting gives adults of legal gambling age access to one of the most popular spectator sports in the world, offering immediate wagering options through smartphones and PCs.

The global popularity of soccer derives from its inexpensive and cross-culture playability. A round ball and a friend or two is all that is required for children of rich and poor Third World countries alike to quickly begin playing. This is why the sport has such age-old and rabid support in many countries like Brazil, England, France, Germany and Spain.

Betting on MLS soccer in the United States might not be as popular as football or basketball, and it's certainly not as popular in America as it is in other countries. But it's still a sport intensely followed in the US and there are many legal online sports betting options available.

This page discusses the legalities of betting on soccer for USA players and recommends where to place bets legally online. The sites we list are all legally licensed to accept American players and are some of the most trusted names in the industry. So whether you are new to betting on soccer or are an expert player looking for the most reputable sites to bet at, we've got you covered.

Coronavirus Update

In response to the coronavirus (COVID-19), the MLS is suspended for at least 30 days, while the Premier League and other major European leagues and tournaments have been suspended until at least early April and likely beyond. Major international tournaments like the Euro 2020 have been canceled outright. For soccer bettors looking to gamble in the meantime, remember that all the best offshore books also have real money casinos, slots, poker tournaments, and more.

Is It Legal Bet On Soccer In The US?

Yes, it is. Depending on what state you are placing your bet from, you may have more than one legal option for betting on soccer. There are multiple states that have legalized domestic sportsbook gambling, and with the exception of only three states (CT, WA, NJ), US residents can also enjoy online sports betting sites that are operating legally offshore, such as the ones listed in this guide.

PASPA has been repealed, and the Federal Wire Act only limits domestic sportsbooks from accepting bets across state lines. The UIGEA simply places regulatory oversight on how gambling-related transactions can be processed. None of these federal gambling laws prohibit US bettors from placing bets on soccer games either online or in brick and mortar sportsbooks.

If you are an American and enjoy betting on Soccer games, then we highly recommend betting at Bovada. They are by far the most trusted and reputable USA friendly online sportsbook and offer a host of betting options for soccer enthusiasts.

Bovada offers soccer betting lines on anything and everything. You can log into the site at any time and find betting odds from leagues and matches being played in all corners of the globe.

There are 3 major US federal laws affecting sports betting in the US—PASPA, the Federal Wire Act and the UIGEA. PASPA prevents 46 states from hosting any sort of regulated betting activity, i.e. physical sportsbooks, lottery sports betting, etc. The Federal Wire Act prevents sports betting through US based online sites. The UIGEA applies to banks and other financial institutions, specifically how they process transactions with online gambling sites. None of these laws make it illegal to bet with a licensed and regulated offshore sportsbook.

Absolutely. All of these online sportsbooks are competing for your business. So each site offers very generous bonuses and perks to both new and existing players alike in hopes that you will sign up with them instead of the guy next door. Such bonuses include a welcome bonus where the sportsbook will match a certain % of your deposit. For example if a site offers a 50% bonus up to $250, they would give you $250 free cash to bet with if your first deposit was at least $500. Not only that but nearly every site offers ongoing promotions such as reload bonuses, special contests and much more.

This is what makes betting soccer online so attractive to American players. I don't know of any Vegas sportsbooks that will give you free cash just for making a deposit. Even some of the sharpies in Vegas choose to bet online because they get so much bang for their buck in the way of bonuses and rewards.

Soccer Betting Rules

For the novice player, here is a short breakdown on the rules of a soccer game as it pertains to wagering in a sportsbook. Please keep in mind that these are general rules and will vary from sportsbook to sportsbook.

They are included in this guide to provide bettors with an overview concerning soccer betting rules, and do not constitute any guarantees. We advise that you consult the rules page at any online sportsbook you visit to make sure you have a clear understanding of the rules prior to placing any real money wagers.

1. Sportsbooks will provide a specific length of time for this rule, but most sportsbooks consider a match official for wagering if it has gone between 40 – 90 minutes. Some sports betting sites require the entire 90 minutes, while others set the bar at 40. You will need to check the rules of the website you are at to confirm this.

2. If a venue change or date change occurs, or if a scheduled soccer match is abandoned or postponed by more than 24 hours, all wagers will be considered no action. If a match is abandoned but at least 40 minutes were played, then the outcome will be determined by the end of the match at time of abandonment.

3. Unless specifically noted otherwise, the score that is recorded at the completion of regulation play is what will be use for wagering results. In most cases, extra time played, golden goals scored and penalty shoot outs that occur are not included in the 90 minute play time.

4. Wagers that are placed via moneyline have only three potential outcomes: win, lose or draw. If a match ends in a tie (draw), but you did not select this option in the moneyline, then you will lose the wager.

5. There are specific rules on player props and goal props. For example, a player who does not enter the game until after the first goal is scored is rendered as no action for wagering purposes. If a match is abandoned after a goal has already been scored, all bets that were placed on First Goal and No Goal will stand as active, whereas the wagers placed on Last Goal will be rendered null and refunded accordingly.

There are a large number of props bets that can be placed on soccer, and these also will vary by brand. For a complete list of props betting options and the rules which apply to them, you will need to refer to the sportsbook at which you intend to bet at.

6. Soccer sports betting sites afford a Double Chance wager. This is when you bet on 2 of the 3 possible outcomes for the match.

7. For bets that are placed on the Time of First Goal, most sportsbooks use www.flashscore.com to settle the goal time.

8. Concerning bets placed on the Total Corners Line, the actual number of corners is determined by the total number of corners a team accrues during a designated match. Corners that are retaken are counted as one, and corners which are awarded but not taken will not count.

9. Man of the Match wager is determined according to the UEFA.

Soccer Betting Rules Draw

10. There is also a bet that can be placed predicting which team will win both halves. The winning team will score more goals than their opponent in both halves of the match.

Wrapping It Up

A Draw or Tie happens more in professional soccer than in any other globally wagered pro sport, and the savvy bettor which can identify a hot underdog can capture significant money line odds by placing the right wager here. The traditional spread, money line and over/under point total bets are also generally offered by your better soccer betting sites, and in some cases futures and proposition bets are available as well.

The international FIFA soccer league offers sports fans an opportunity to make a patriotic bet on his own country in events such as betting on the FIFA World Cup, and the UEFA CL (Union of European Football Association Champions League) allows some of the world's most devoted and fanatical soccer fans gambling opportunities on famous and prestigious professional soccer games held in that country.

Loyal soccer fans wishing to place a wager on their beloved Real Madrid, Manchester United or Arsenal squads now have more instant access available than ever before if they wish to place a real money wager on the outcome of a match, but should always check out the soccer betting sites where they play first.

Legal licensing in certified jurisdictions should be confirmed before you place your first soccer wager. Betting software and site security should also be investigated, and multiple banking and betting options, not to mention a wide range of attractive betting lines, should be your goal if you are looking for an online soccer betting destination.

As industry consultants who have worked hard to earn a respected spot in our industry, we have compiled an extensive review process we apply to all soccer betting websites that we employ before we recommend any online sportsbook. And soccer fans should also demand in this day and age that there are mobile sports betting options for their preferred online soccer betting portal.

Soccer Betting Rules Tab

Legally, this may still mean that US players cannot use an American banking institution deposit method like a credit card to fund their Internet gambling account. However, the intelligent operators of the more reputable and legitimate online soccer betting sites generally offer several safe and secure banking options for US players who wish to legally open an Internet sportsbook account and place some responsible, adult wagers on soccer contests.

These same companies usually offer excellent numbers when they list their lines, sides, money lines and totals on soccer matches, as they understand the loyal nature of the typical soccer fan. To recap, as long as a US citizen sticks to those reputable soccer betting websites which have obtained legal licensing in regulated online gambling jurisdictions, their experience will be dependable, reliable and enjoyable.
