The Betsson sportsbook shows many popular markets for Bundesliga betting odds, including the 'League Winner,' 'Relegation,' and 'The Race for Champions League Qualification.' The new Bundesliga season kicks off in August and runs through to May, with the traditional winter break set to take place after Match Day 15 in December.
After reclaiming the title last year, Bayern Munich are starting as clear favourites in the Bundesliga odds – looking primed to scoop back-to-back wins under Kompany. The Bayern Munich striker is also favourite to be the league's top scorer, aiming for his third consecutive Torjägerkanone.
Bayer Leverkusen look to pose the biggest challenge to Bayern, while Dortmund, Frankfurt, and Freiburg are favourites to win Champions League qualification. For the league's headline fixtures, betting on Bundesliga fans will have Der Klassiker – Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund – already in their diaries, as it promises to be the biggest match of the season!
Now, in the relegation market, newly promoted Hamburg and Hannover 96 are both among the favourites to drop straight back down – and both teams will need to deliver a very strong start to silence the odds Bundesliga experts currently have set against them!
About Bundesliga Football Betting
The German Bundesliga is the youngest of Europe's Big 5 leagues. It's also unique among them, with 18 teams instead of 20. The Bundesliga operates a promotion and relegation system with Bundesliga 2, with two automatic relegation places.
Betting odds focus on the Bundesliga qualification places for the Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League. Bayern Munich is the most successful team in Bundesliga history, with legendary Gerd Müller as the top goalscorer.
How to Bet on the Bundesliga
One of the benefits of registering with Betsson is access to an extensive range of markets and bet types for Bundesliga odds on everything from managerial changes and player transfers to long forecasts of a football bet on the title winner.
Popular Football Betting Markets
- Match Results: This is arguably the most straightforward football market to bet on Bundesliga odds – and it allows you to simply choose whether the home team, the away team, or a draw will be the final result after 90 minutes. (Note: this bet does not usually include extra time.)
- Handicap: Here, one team begins with a virtual goal advantage – or deficit. This essentially levels the playing field and can offer better odds; it is primarily used when one team is a clear favourite.
- Total Goals: In this market, you're betting on the total combined number of goals scored by both teams. This bet is usually offered as 'Over/Under' lines – so you'll often see Over 2.5 or Under 2.5.
- Draw No Bet: If you place this bet, you're basically removing the draw option. If the team that you place a bet on wins, the bet pays out. If it's a draw, your stake is refunded. Generally seen as a safer bet, although the odds are lower than a straight 'Match Result' wager.
- Half-Time/Full-Time: This wager allows you to predict the result at both half-time and full-time. As you need to get two predictions correct, this market offers higher odds than simple 'Match Result' bets.
- Both Teams to Score (BTTS): This is a simple yes/no bet that requires you to bet whether both teams will score in 90 minutes or not. If they do, your bet wins. The match's final score does not play a part in this wager.
Bundesliga Odds on Outrights
The Bundesliga winner odds focus on the title race, while 'The Race to Qualify for Champions League Football' and a 'Top 4 Finish' offers a slightly wider scope. Bundesliga relegation betting is another popular outright market, along with 'Team Total Points,' 'Team Total Goals,' and 'Bundesliga Top Goalscorer.'

Great Bundesliga Moments
The history of the Bundesliga has been littered with great moments. There were great battles between Bayern Munich and Borussia Mönchengladbach for the title throughout the 1960s and 1970s. Munich pulled well ahead from the 1980s onward and recorded a remarkable eleven straight titles between 2013 and 2023.
Borussia Dortmund have sporadically upset the Bundesliga odds for title races by famously denying Bayern Munich in 2011 and 2012 in particular. Wolfsburg's 2008/09 league title was spectacular as well, as they had been nothing more than an outside shot at the start of the season but won their first league title by just about holding off Bayern Munich by two points.
