Best Football Apps

Football is the deepest market on every sportsbook we test, so this page focuses on what actually differs between apps for football specifically: league coverage, live odds speed and local payments. For general market explainers (1X2, handicap, totals) see our full betting apps page. For apps beyond football, see the full list of gambling apps for Android.

Best Football Betting Apps for Android in 2026

Eight apps made this list, each with football as the core of their sportsbook. 1xBet covers the widest set of leagues we confirmed; the rest each add something different, from the highest site rating to a globally recognised brand.

Football Leagues These Apps Cover

All eight apps here cover the major European leagues (Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1) and the Champions League as a baseline. 1xBet is the app where we confirmed local Southeast Asian coverage specifically: Liga 1 for Indonesian users, alongside PBA and UAAP for Philippine basketball. Coverage on smaller domestic leagues and lower divisions varies by app and by season; if a specific league matters to you, check its current market list inside the app before you deposit for it.

Football-Specific Markets to Know

• Both teams to score. A yes or no bet on whether both sides find the net, independent of who wins.
• Correct score. Pick the exact final scoreline; long odds, since it needs both the winner and the margin right.
• Asian handicap. The dominant format for balancing a clear favourite against an underdog in football specifically, more common here than in other sports.
• Half-time/full-time. A double result bet combining the leader at half-time with the final result.
• Anytime goalscorer. A player prop on whether a specific player scores at any point in the match.

Payments and Licences

GCash and Maya are confirmed on 1xBet, Melbet, Betwinner, 20Bet and BetOnGame; BET88 confirms Maya.

FAQ: Football Betting Apps

For most bettors in the Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia, 1xBet is our pick for the widest football and league coverage with confirmed local payments, and bet365 or Betway Sport for a globally established regulator. Whichever app you choose, verify the licence yourself and read the bonus terms before you deposit.
