How To Bet on Virtual Soccer: Virtual Soccer Betting Guide

Growing in popularity, virtual soccer is available at BetMGM. 

It might sound like it’ll bring a lot of new jargon, but experienced bettors won’t take long to understand how to bet on virtual sports, whether they’re turning their hand to virtual basketball, virtual football, or virtual soccer. 

Virtual Soccer Betting Explained

Betting on virtual soccer is similar to wagering on real-world soccer. The main difference is the frequency of the matches, with virtual fixtures kicking off every three minutes on the BetMGM website and app.

Outcomes of each match are determined by random number generators and dedicated simulation software. 

Virtual fixtures are split into different competitions, including the Champions League, Euro Cup, and World Cup. 

The process of placing a virtual soccer betting wager is the same as in real-world sports. There is a range of markets to choose from. It’s a case of selecting the wager and inputting the stake before placing the bet. 

Virtual Soccer Betting Markets

Anyone who has placed bets on soccer will be familiar with the virtual soccer betting markets that are available at BetMGM. 

Match Winner

The simplest of virtual soccer betting markets. It is a bet on which team will win the match. The team with shorter odds is the favourite. 

The outcome of this wager is decided by which team wins the fixture, regardless of how many goals are scored. 

Total Goals

There are two types of total goals bets on virtual soccer at BetMGM. The traditional over/under comes from a line set by the sportsbook, with bettors wagering on whether there will be over or under that total in the match.

Alternatively, bettors can place a total goals bet and try to predict the exact number of goals in the match.

Both Teams to Score

A straightforward yes/no bet on whether both teams will score in the match.

Betting BTTS – yes only wins if both teams find the net. A BTTS – no wager can win if the match finishes goalless or if one team fails to score. 

Correct Score

As it sounds, this wager requires an accurate prediction for the final score in the match. There are longer odds available in this market as it requires a specific prediction. 

For example, it is possible to bet on a team to win a virtual soccer match 3-0. The bet would only pay out if the match finished 3-0 to the team that had been backed. 

Halftime/Fulltime

This market is about predicting which team will be winning at halftime and fulltime. For example, a bet on Celtic/Milan would only win if Celtic were winning the fixture at halftime and Milan came back to win in the second half.

Alternatively, it is possible to bet on the draw at halftime or fulltime. A bet like draw/Milan would win if the scores were level at halftime and Milan went on to win the match.
