Football Leagues You Can Still Bet on Despite Coronavirus

Which league(s) are you betting on this weekend?

Up until recently, this would have been a normal question to ask anyone serious about making money from their betting business.

These days, there are more reasons why you, as a bettor, should be able to answer this question, correctly.

Some of those reasons are:

• The postponement of games because of the Coronavirus epidemic
• The outright suspension of leagues like the NBA, Premier League and the withdrawal of teams from events like the F1 race in Australia
• Professional athletes getting diagnosed with the coronavirus, or staying in self isolation, e.g., Paulo Dybala

Instead of anticipation about the new F1 season, the late regular-season drama in the NBA and the fun talk about the UEFA Champions League, the COVID-19 virus has stolen the headlines, everywhere.

With sport organizations looking to suspend more events in the coming days, it’s bad news for bettors.

As the weekend approaches, which leagues should you be targeting?

1. Australia A-League

Earlier today, Brisbane Roar registered a 1-0 win over Central Coast Mariners in the Round 23 game in the league. While other leagues in Europe are going in hibernation, there’s plenty of Round 23 action set to go down in the premier Australian football league this weekend.

Table toppers like Sydney FC will be in action as they look to maintain their lead. Melbourne City (2^nd) and Wellington Phoenix (3^rd) will also be in action this weekend.

2. Football Leagues in South America

Europe has taken the hardest hit since the Coronavirus became a serious concern. It has become so serious that games in the Spanish La Liga and the Italian Serie A have been postponed until further notice.

But this is not the same in other continents, especially in South America.

From the Copa Libertadores to the Bolivia Division Professional, the Argentina Primera Nacional, the Ecuador Liga Pro, amongst other leagues, there’ll be plenty of football to enjoy and make money from in the South American continent this weekend.

3. Football Leagues in the Middle-East

Are you still looking for more games to add to your bet slip this weekend?

While the Coronavirus started off in Asia, there are still plenty of football leagues that are yet to shut-down, unlike the others.

Have you considered UAE League? With 19 games played in the 2019/2020 season, the action is at its prime, with teams scrambling for points needed to qualify for the AFC Champions League/avoid relegation.

Then there’s the Turkish Super Lig. With the top four sides in the league separated by just three points, you can expect the competition to be as competitive as possible this weekend.

These are just some of the football leagues that will go on this weekend, despite the spread of the virus.

Yes, the pandemic is real. And it has definitely ruined both sports and sports betting for us this weekend. However, it doesn’t have to stop you from making some money from your betting business this weekend, albeit in a different kind of way.
