When people think of popular sports in Ireland, they will mostly think of sports such as football, horse racing, golf, and rugby.

While these are highly popular, there are also sports that are endemic to the Emerald Isle, and these are GAA games such as Gaelic football, hurling, and Gaelic handball.

In this guide, you can find out more about how to bet on such sports as well as the biggest competitions and different markets you can choose from. So, without further ado, let’s crack on.

GAA Betting Odds

With regard to GAA betting odds, there are three different odds formats that you can decide to use and these are decimal, fractional, and American.

At Betiton Ireland, you have the option of using any one of these formats, but the default odds format is decimal.

If you want to change to one of the other formats, then you can do so in the top right. If you happen to be new to Gaelic games betting, then we suggest that you make use of decimal odds since they are the easiest ones to understand.

Below we have given a brief explanation for each:

  • Decimal:

The number given tells you the total payout that winning bets will give back, and not just your overall profit.

  • Fractional:

The number indicates the amount that is available for every €1 that you stake.

  • American:

These odds have a plus and minus sign. The plus sign tells you who the underdogs are, the minus sign tells you who the favourites are.

Gaelic football, also simply referred to as “Gaelic”, is the most popular of all Gaelic games.

The aim of the game is to score as many points as possible by hitting the ball through H-shaped goals at each end of the pitch.

The teams are made up of 15 players each, and the players are able to use their feet and hands to move with and pass the ball.

Gaelic football matches are made up of two 35-minutes halves.

Find out all that you need to know about this entertaining sport on our Gaelic football betting page.

Gaelic Hurling

This is a sport that involves players using a wooden hurling stick to hit a small ball into their opponent’s goal.

The length of the stick depends on the preference of the player, but it is usually around 35 inches.

It is one of the world’s oldest field games, as it combines elements of lacrosse, field hockey, and baseball.

The ball can be slapped with an open palm, kicked, caught in the air and carried in the hands for a maximum of four steps before it has to be bounced on the stick.

Like Gaelic football, each team has 15 players and a match lasts 70 minutes.

Gaelic Handball

Gaelic handball is a ball game that involves a wall and a ball – players take it in turns to hit the ball against the wall, trying to get it to bounce twice before their opponent can strike back.

The ball has to strike the front wall before it hits the ground.

There are different versions as it can be played 1 vs 1 or 2 vs 2. In this game, only the player or team that is serving can earn a point, with matches usually being the best of three sets – a set is won when a player or team reaches 21 points.

GAA Betting Markets Available at Betiton Ireland

When you are betting on GAA, there will be plenty of different markets that you can consider placing your money on, ensuring that there is always some sort of entertainment available.

We are now going to take a look at some of the most popular GAA betting markets that can be found at Betiton Ireland.

Outright Winner:

With GAA outright betting, what you need to do is try to predict the team that will go on and win the trophy – place your bet as early as you can since the odds will get shorter with each passing round.

Match Winner:

If you do not want to bet on the overall winner of an event, you can try to predict the team that will come out on top in a particular match.

Double Chance:

If you think a team has a chance of winning a match but are not completely sure, then you can opt for the double chance option, where your bet will be a successful one if they go on to win or draw the match.

Accumulator Betting:

If you want to put some money on a few matches but are not impressed by the odds that are being offered, then you can consider placing them all in one accumulator bet – the bookmaker will multiply the odds together, giving larger potential returns.

Winning Margin:

If you think that a team will win a match quite comfortably, then you can look for bigger returns by betting on the number of points that you think they will win the match by. Your bookmaker will offer a points range, and you just have to select the points range which you think the winners will win by.

Total Points Scored:

Your bookie will provide you with a figure, and then it will be up to you to bet on whether the total points scored in the game will be over or under that particular number.

First Scoring Play:

With such a market, you are wagering on who will register the first points in a match – when it comes to Gaelic football or hurling, it can be the first goal as well.

Handicap Betting:

With GAA handicap betting, you have the option of giving one of the teams a points advantage or disadvantage in order to level the playing field.

Betiton Ireland GAA Betting Tips

In this section of our betting GAA guide, we are going to give you some quality GAA betting tips that you should remember when you are betting on these entertaining sports.

  • Consider Form: Before you finalise any bet on a GAA team, make sure to check out the form that they are in. If they have been losing a lot lately, we recommend betting on another outcome.
  • Head-to-Head is Important: Teams usually have opponents that they tend to fare poorly against, so before betting on a team to win a match, check out their head-to-head form against their upcoming opponents.
  • Check Injuries and Suspensions: Gaelic games are tough, so it is not rare for injuries to crop up. Additionally, players can get sent off for bad tackles and get subsequent bans. If a team happens to be missing a number of key players, their chances of being victorious will obviously decrease.
  • Check the Weather: Ideal weather conditions for Gaelic games are warm and bright with little wind and firm ground underfoot. However, this is a rarity in Ireland, and wet and slippery conditions can play a huge part in the quality and outcome of a match. So, before placing a bet, check out what the weather forecast is predicting.
