If you like the excitement of goals and the close control and skills of football, you’ll love futsal. And you can bet on futsal right here at BoyleSports, with our range of futsal betting markets and futsal odds.
Futsal is a sport very similar to football. Featuring five players on each team including the goalkeeper and played indoors with a smaller and heavier ball, futsal is all about close control and technique. It’s hugely popular in South America and Spain and has helped hone the skills and careers of top footballers like Neymar and Ronaldinho.
Here we’ll look at some of the bets you can make on futsal, as well as some futsal betting tips.

How Do Odds Work on Futsal
At BoyleSports, you’ll see all our futsal odds shown as fractional odds. An example could be Brazil to beat Spain at 2/1. If you back Brazil, and they win you’ll get 2x your original bet back. So, if you bet £10, you’d win £20. You would also get your original £10 stake back too.
Futsal odds are in place to give you an idea of the probability of an event happening, as well as detailing your potential winnings. You can use them to your advantage when it comes to value betting. With value betting, sometimes you can see discrepancies between the odds offered and the true probability of an event. By analysing team and player stats, recent form, and other data points you can identify potential value bets where the odds seem too high for the actual likelihood of the outcome. It’s a helpful betting strategy.
Futsal Betting Tips
When it comes to betting on futsal, consider the following:
- Style of the game: Yes futsal shares many similarities with football, but it’s not the same sport. It’s a more technical and higher scoring game. With so many goals, it makes bets like correct score a difficult one to predict. If you’re just starting out on your futsal betting journey, goals over/under might be an easier bet to begin with. Handicap betting is also a good approach when the teams look a little mismatched.
- Team dynamics: Compared to football, much less is known about futsal. You could likely predict the score of Brazil vs. Spain in football will little work. Less so in futsal. You need to dig into the data to make informed bets. Look specifically at factors like recent form, head-to-head history, home/away advantage, and tactical approaches. Identify strengths, weaknesses, and how teams match up against each other.
- Individual players: A top futsal player can pull the strings and swing a game to their own advantage with goals, skills and impact. Get to know the best players, their style, form and favourite opponents. Pay close attention to goalkeeper performance, as it's crucial in futsal.
