Sports betting at the Melbet bookmaker

Supporting a sports team or an individual athlete means finding meaning in life, looking forward to every upcoming match, being part of a wider community, and passionately backing your team, all whilst counting on a real adrenaline rush. However, for some people, even watching their favourite team’s matches isn’t exciting enough, and if you want every single match to take on a whole new dimension and become truly thrilling, the simplest way to achieve this is to place sports bets. Fans will find some of the most favourable terms for placing sports bets at Melbet.

Sports betting at Melbet: what the platform has to offer

Melbet sports betting section is a real source of pride for us, and we certainly have plenty to be proud of. At any given time, there are around 9,000 sporting events listed (available for betting), covering even the most obscure sports and leagues that are objectively of interest only to the most die-hard local fans. At the same time, the site’s management naturally does not overlook top-tier competitions, and tournaments such as the Champions League, the NBA, the NHL and the four Grand Slam tennis tournaments traditionally attract the widest audience. Incidentally, bets can be placed not only on individual matches but also on the outcome of the entire competition, and predictions regarding a specific game can be made not only before it starts but also whilst the match is in progress.

It is worth noting that even visitors with no prior experience of using online bookmakers will quickly get to grips with Melbet’s features and capabilities. You can place bets from both a PC and a smartphone – on mobile devices, the interface automatically adapts to portrait orientation and smaller screen sizes. Overall, you can place a bet in a matter of seconds, and this is yet another reason to place your bet.

Popular sports for betting

At Melbet, we are genuinely committed to looking after the interests of every one of our fans, which is why we accept bets on around 60 sports, including even the lesser-known ones. However, the main focus remains on a short list of the most popular sports – here is a list of them, along with the number of matches available and the most popular tournaments:

  • football – 2,000–2,500 matches, with a particular focus on the Champions League, the top five European leagues and international fixtures;
  • basketball – 300–450 matches, with the NBA and EuroLeague being the top priorities for fans;
  • tennis – 100–400 matches, with a focus on Grand Slam tournaments and ATP/WTA tours;
  • ice hockey – 250–400 scheduled matches, with the NHL and KHL among the most popular;
  • volleyball – 250–400 matches, with the highest-rated events being European continental tournaments and leading European national championships;
  • esports – around 100 matches across 10–12 leading esports disciplines, including CS, Dota 2, LoL and Valorant;
  • table tennis – 600–700 matches covered; the focus here is not so much on top-tier tournaments as on smaller-scale competitions, either live or in the upcoming pre-match market;
  • MMA – up to 100 bouts, including the UFC, the premier organisation in this sport.

Live betting and match broadcasts

Before placing a sports bet, beginners are advised to carefully study the pre-match analysis, but there is an alternative approach: why try to guess the starting line-ups and the opponents’ mindset going into the game, when you can simply wait for the match to start and watch it, so that you have accurate information? At Melbet, you can place your bet even whilst the match is already underway, but bear in mind that the odds change with every shift in the situation on the pitch, court, ice or track, so it’s important not to delay placing your bet until it’s still a good value.


Incidentally, you can watch around 30,000 matches every month directly on our website and via our mobile app – this should put any doubts about where to find a live stream to rest. Unfortunately, we don’t hold the broadcasting rights for every single match, but where there’s no live footage, we’re happy to provide an informative graphic broadcast from MelZone instead.


Main types of sports betting

The Melbet team is ready to accommodate virtually any bet: for top sporting events, we offer a betting market with up to 1,300 options. This means that even in a match where the balance of power is crystal clear, punters can still find an intriguing bet with high odds, whilst a game where the outcome is far from certain also offers opportunities for a sound bet. However, most often fans choose relatively simple betting options without delving too deeply into the betting market, and there is a logic to this too. Here’s where a betting novice should start:

  • match results – a prediction of the winner or a draw; the exact score is irrelevant;
  • handicaps – a clear advantage for one side or, conversely, virtually equal statistics; most often in relation to goals or points, but also in the context of yellow cards, corners and other statistical aspects;
  • Totals – the total number of goals/points in a match, without specifying the winner; this parameter also applies to other statistical categories, such as yellow cards, corners and so on;
  • Bets on periods, halves and sets are the same as bets on the outcome, handicap or total, but apply not to the entire match, but only to a specific part of it;
  • Combined bets and accumulators – a combination of two markets relating to a single match (for example, the home team to win with the total number of corners in the match exceeding 8.5) or to different fixtures (for example, Barcelona will win their La Liga match, and Carlos Alcaraz will win his match at a tennis tournament), and in all cases the bet slip will only win if all the conditions included in it are met.

Bonuses and promotions for sports betting

The Melbet bonus programme is one of the strongest reasons to choose our site: at any given time, you’ll find around fifteen sports betting bonuses in the Promotions section. This includes both permanent and limited-time offers, so the exact number is constantly changing. You can always check out the latest promotions in the Promotions section, but here we’ll highlight only the most notable features:

  • Right from the registration stage, you are entitled to a welcome sports bonus – the casino is ready to double your first deposit up to €100;
  • Existing customers can complete tasks; for example, if you place 5 bets on the Champions League, each with a stake of at least €3 and odds of 1.5 or higher, you will receive a free bet. Similar promotions are available for other tournaments, including other sports;
  • For all losing bets settled last week that meet the terms of this special offer, Melbet customers can receive 3% cashback, whilst cashback on bets placed via our mobile app will be a generous 10%.
