Where to Bet on Euro 2020: Best Betting Sites & Offers

Euro 2020 is around the corner and not only does it provide one of the best showcases of international football with seemingly nonstop action for one whole month, but there are also an array of wagering opportunities and some of the biggest betting offers you will see all year.

For those of you who only have an account with one or two online betting sites, major football tournaments such as Euro 2020 represent the perfect chance to snap up sign up offers from top UK bookmakers.

2 million new accounts were opened in the UK with online betting sites around the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

With so many people looking to watch and bet on the games, it is no surprise that bookies ramp up their promotions and often improve their already juicy new customer offers.

You will also find special markets and unique bet types available, as a higher demand results in an increased supply.

Football betting is, along with horse racing, the most important aspect of any online betting site in 2021 and as such, each bookmaker is competing with one another to deliver the best overall product for punters.

They attempt to do this in a variety of ways, with some bookies specialising in areas such as promotions and enhanced odds, whereas others simply have more variety and a better breadth of markets.

Every bettor has different preferences and priorities, so while it is difficult to recommend just one particular Euro 2020 betting site, we can categorise them and advise as to which ones are the best depending on what it is you’re after.

For newcomers to a betting site or sports betting in general, there is no better way to kickstart your account than with a lucrative sign up offer.

Most bookies will offer some form of Euro 2020 free bets, and these will usually require a qualifying bet which you must place with your own money in order to unlock the free bet bonus.

Other betting sites might offer a matched first deposit, and in these instances you can earn as much as £100 but funds are subject to wagering requirements.

If you select a betting site offer that provides you with a series of Euro 2020 free bets, then this gives you the ability to spread your wagers out across the various Euro 2020 betting markets that are available such as the tournament winner, golden boot, and player of the tournament.

Bookies will also have offers for existing customers throughout the tournament. Typical promotions you can expect to see include:

• Enhanced odds
• Acca insurance
• Acca bonus
• Money back
• Free bet promotions

When betting on Euro 2020, you want to make sure you are getting the best odds available, otherwise, you are simply missing out on money.

By having an account with multiple online betting sites, you can compare prices between all of them and place wagers on the sportsbooks with the best odds for the bet you want to make.

You may not think there is much difference between 8/1 and 9/1, but over time these small disparities will make a big impact on your profit/loss.

In the main outright markets such as the tournament winner, the favourites will be priced almost identically across all bookies, but if you pick a team in the tier below like Croatia, there might be one or two bookies offering a significantly better price than the others, such as 33/1 rather than 22/1.

If you do just want to stick to a couple or even just one betting site, and getting the best odds is a priority for you, then you should pick one with the highest payout percentage.

There will not be one bookie that offers the best odds for every bet you want to place, but the payout percentage is a good indicator of the value you can get with each particular betting site.

At Bookies Bonuses, we have looked at a number of the Euro 2020 betting markets, and as it stands, the best payout percentages across the board are provided by Unibet and LeoVegas, whose odds are supplied by Kambi.

Both of these sites also have outstanding welcome offers and a wide range of markets, so we would suggest both of these bookmakers for your football wagers.

With football being such a dynamic sport with hundreds of different elements, many of which can be bet on, there are a huge number of betting markets within each fixture whether it is the Premier League, international football, or even lower league fixtures in more obscure countries.

There are now more distinct football betting markets than ever before.

You can break a game down into periods, or, should you wish, shift your betting focus away from the result of the match and instead look into corners, cards, free kicks, and individual player stats.

Punters also wager on over or under a total goals line, and other popular bet types such as double chance, draw no bet, first goalscorer, and Asian handicap.

‘Request a bet’ markets are now available with most leading bookies, and in recent years, the ‘Bet Builder’ tool has been a huge success within football betting, as it allows bettors to put together multiple selections within one game and combine them into one bet.

Around Euro 2020, you can expect to see even more markets than usual, both in terms of individual games and ante-post markets.

Bookies such as Paddy Power and William Hill are renowned for listing a multitude of unique markets and request a bet specials, so if you want to price up some specific wagers, for example: ‘France to win Euro 2020, Raheem Sterling to be top scorer and Spain to be knocked out in the group stage’, you will be able to do this via social media.

Bet365, meanwhile, do not offer request a bet but do have a Bet Builder function, and are the only bookie in the UK that allow up to four bet builders to be added into accumulators.

Their breadth of markets overall is second to none, and while you may get more novelty bets and other specials elsewhere, you can’t beat Bet365 for the bread and butter.

Despite a 55-year major trophy drought, England are the pre-tournament favourites for Euro 2020 as far as online betting sites are concerned, with a best price of 11/2.

World champions France and the stacked Belgium side are also towards the top of the market, while Spain and Germany aren't as close as they have been in recent tournaments.

Italy shouldn’t be ignored at 12/1, while the Euro 2016 winners, Portugal, have caught the eye of some punters at 9/1.

The Netherlands have drifted slightly in recent months and can be backed at 14/1.

The below table shows the best price for the contending nations, with odds correct as of April 2021.
