If we want to find guaranteed profitable sports bets then soccer is a great sports to begin with.

Soccer matches are priced up by all of the big bookmakers and some nice guaranteed profitable bets are available in the event you know when and where to look. Sports bookmakers never miss a trick when thinking up new ways to extract your money from you and there are plenty of inventive bets on offer.

Soccer can in lots of ways be about timing. The earlier the cost appears the better likely there will be a sure-bet or arbitrage opportunity (arb).

Bookmakers clearly do a whole lot of research as soccer has now become a big earner for them. They need to do this as they are just too aware that the serious punters are becoming much shrewder within this market and also will exploit any snippets of news that can provide them with an edge. They advertise heavily in the tabloids.

Whereas in certain minor sports there may be only one odds compiler doing work for the bookmaker soccer is too profitable due to this any many odds compilers will work feverishly setting prices for the big bookmakers. Any European bookmaker worth its salt shall offer odds on soccer, its a high revenue turnover sport.

Such is their turnover on the rising soccer betting market that Ladbrokes as well as other such big bookmakers are willing to take a 'big' bet on the outcome of a match. This is clearly great news for the arb maker. This means that the maximum bets they're going to accept on a bet are a lot higher.

There are numerous kinds of soccer bets. Firstly there is the match winner. This really is split into 3 results, win, lose or draw. Then you'll find the first goal scorer and also the precise match score. The less obvious bets are half-time, full-time results, total corners, total throw-ins, total numbers of yellow and red cards and so forth. In fact anything where odds may be set to shall offer a betting opportunity.

So which are the best soccer bets to look for? Firstly forget about predicting the match score, there are too many outcomes. The very first goal scorer is a waste of time too. Both these kinds of bets are heavily advertised but are for mug punters only, the odds consistently being offered are poor, the bookmakers regularly taking over 15% profit on the book. These bets have far too many possible outcomes. We are trying to find bets with ideally 2 or 3 possible outcomes.

Other kinds of bet can throw up the odd arb but the main source of arbs is on the match result over 90 minutes. This really is where we should concentrate most of our efforts. Clearly this falls into 3 results, win, gamble lose or draw.
