LaLiga betting

LaLiga is Spain's top football league. Twenty clubs play 38 matches each from August to May, and the bottom three are relegated.

Spanish football is known for possession and patient build-up, and many matches are decided by a single goal, so tight scores are common.

Markets you usually see

• Match result - home, draw or away after 90 minutes.
• Over / under goals - usually around two and a half goals.
• Both teams to score - yes or no.
• Handicap and double chance on most matches.
