Bet on Soccer in South Africa

From Bafana Bafana's magical 1996 Africa Cup of Nations triumph, to the spectacular 2010 FIFA World Cup, to the iconic Soweto Derby, the beautiful game has always brought South Africans together. We at Bets.co.za aim to both enhance and simplify the experience of betting on soccer in South Africa.

Local and overseas soccer leagues alike are followed religiously across South Africa. With passionate support naturally comes betting interest. It is important for bettors to understand not only soccer itself, but also the various markets involved in soccer betting. This is why Bets.co.za strives to provide you with important information and advice for betting on soccer in South Africa.

Soccer betting odds can fluctuate tremendously from one bookmaker to the next. As a bettor, it is easy to miss out on good value bets if you are unaware of all the soccer bets on offer in South Africa. Our comparison tools allow you to compare soccer betting odds and markets across various bookmakers in South Africa, enabling you to find the best deals available.

It is important for bettors to keep up to date with the latest fixture updates. Local and overseas soccer matches are often rescheduled due to clubs having conflicting commitments or for reasons related to TV rights. The best way to make sure you don't miss out on any changes to tournament schedules is to regularly check calendars on websites such as SuperSport and Goal.com.

Local and overseas soccer results are available on SuperSport and Goal.com. It is important for bettors to not only keep up to date with the latest scores, but also look for trends. Soccerway is a useful source for analysing home and away form for specific teams, while WhoScored contains detailed statistical data for teams and players across the globe. These sources significantly simplify the process of betting on soccer.

Soccer fans in South Africa are advised to install the DStv Now mobile app on their smartphones. This allows users to stream local and overseas soccer broadcasted on SuperSport and SABC.

SuperSport's website contains highlights for league and cup soccer matches across the globe. Alternatively, YouTube is another handy source for match highlights, as official club accounts often upload them onto the website.

Soccer Laduma and Kick Off are famously reliable and specialised sources of South African soccer news. Although their websites contain content related to overseas leagues, it is best to follow sources based outside of South Africa too. Goal.com is a useful source of both local and overseas soccer news, while Sky Sports' coverage of English football in particular is famously reliable.
