What is a Request-A-Bet?
Although not always known as a ‘Request-A-Bet’, these types of bets are proving more and more popular with punters and bookmakers by the season. They allow you to curate your own bets by adding multiple selections from different markets on the same match, often resulting in larger odds than your usual scorecast or correct score match bets.
They don’t always have to be long-shots though. You can select from a huge range of markets on each match, so you can add several banker picks to your bet or get silly by adding four different goalscorers and players to get booked as well as a correct score. Whatever you believe will happen in the day’s big Premier League and Champions League matches, these requested bets allow you the full freedom to curate your own, bespoke bets – or of course you can follow the Squawka Bet experts and their bet for the day!
What is the best way to bet on a Request-a-Bet?
There are a few things you may want to consider before placing this type of bet.
As with any bet placed, you’ll want to consider the form, fitness and records of both teams taking place and indeed the players likely to play in the game. But you’ll also want to consider which bookmakers offer the best service for these bets as well as the best available odds once you’ve added your selections.
Some firms allow you to build the bet yourself on the site whereas others ask for you to request the bet through their social media platforms. Or you can scroll through the bets already requested to see if there are some eye-catching odds already available – perhaps even on the bet you had been considering.
The Squawka Bet tips on this page are posted on our social media accounts once they are live on the bookmakers’ websites.
