In this article we breakdown a list of the betting websites that we have found most useful for Eurovision betting. We have included what we see as the main benefits of each site, along with the events that they typically cover (though bear in mind that these can change from year to year).
This is the big one! Mostly because Betfair is home to by far the biggest betting exchange, matching millions of pounds/euros on Eurovision every year. This is great if you want to do trading, in-play betting or set your own odds. The Betfair exchange also offers a wide variety of opportunities, with markets on all the big national selections.
Betfair does also have a traditional fixed odds 'sportsbook' where you will also find a decent number of Eurovision markets.
Events usually covered: Final, Semi Finals, Melfest, MGP (NO), MGP (DK), Sanremo, Songvakeppnin, UMK, Eesti Laul, Australia Decide
This is probably the second most useful site. Unibet offer odds many of the big national selections as well as the main event with a wide variety of markets. Another big plus for Unibet is that they offer in-play betting on some Eurovision events, which is not generally seen from bookmakers.
Events usually covered: Final, Semi Finals, Melfest, MGP (NO), MGP (DK), Sanremo, Eesti Laul
This is another betting exchange that puts up markets for a wide variety of national selection. There is often low liquidity, especially for the smaller markets, but the breadth of events covered makes it well worth checking out. Although it is an exchange we believe that most of the liquidity is supplied by the Smarkets team themselves. This means that you can often find value opportunities, but it makes it much less useful than Betfair for trading.
Events usually covered: Final, Semi Finals, Melfest, MGP (NO), MGP (DK), Sanremo, UMK, Eesti Laul
Bet365 is another very useful site, as it also offers odds on several of the national selections in addition to the main event. Bet365 also offer cash-out and are often the most generous with their odds as well.
Events usually covered: Final, Semi Finals, Melfest, Sanremo, Australia Decide
Other Bookmakers we Use
There are many other bookmakers that we have used. Here is a list of the other main ones, which you can expect to at least offer odds on a variety of Final markets each year:
Odds Comparison
Many markets will be available across multiple sites, so if you want to find the best odds available for each selection then odds comparison websites are a great tool. The sites best for Eurovision odds comparison are Eurovisionworld and Oddschecker. Both of these provide live odds for all the big markets.
Based outside the UK?
We are mostly based in the UK. If you are based outside the UK then you may find that there are more options available to you (for example: Bettson, Svenska Spel, Nordic Bet, Betsafe, Coolbet, and Sportsbet), or that some of the one in our list are not available in your region.
If you have any questions or think that you have found better betting websites then please get in touch.
Happy Betting!
