Popular Football Betting Markets

There will be a lot of FA Cup final bets placed with the best UK betting sites and around the world. The primary market is WDW, also known as Full-Time Result. It’s a simple case of choosing either Liverpool, Chelsea or the draw in 90 minutes, while you can alternatively bet on which team will lift the trophy.

Beyond this, there’s the chance to bet on Both Teams to Score (yes or no), while Total Goals means you can choose between Under/Over 2.5 Goals and other goal lines. Some customers will want to keep things interesting with a First Goalscorer or Correct Score wager, and the odds are bigger due to the wider number of available selections.

This will probably be a record-breaking game for FA Cup Bet Builders considering this type of wager has only recently become mainstream. Choose any number of potential outcomes such as Liverpool to win, BTTS and Mohamed Salah to score and combine them together for a bigger price.

2022 FA Cup Final Betting Odds

If you shop around for the best FA Cup final odds, you might be able to get just about odds-against (11/10) that Liverpool win the match in 90 minutes. Conversely, some might think that Chelsea are good value at 11/4 considering they have big-game players, while the draw is a best price 13/5.

If you think the Reds will make it a domestic cup double, Jurgen Klopp’s side are trading at 8/15 to lift the trophy, and Chelsea are a best price 13/8 to exact revenge by winning the 2022 FA Cup final either in normal time, extra time or penalties.

The First Goalscorer market allows customers to place an FA Cup final bet at bigger odds, and it’s little surprise to find Mohamed Salah favourite at 9/2. However, the Egyptian has been off target recently, and perhaps Sadio Mane (6/1) or Luis Diaz (15/2) are better options. Romelu Lukaku (17/2) and Kai Havertz (8/1) are regarded as the most likely Chelsea first goalscorers.

How to Bet on the 2022 FA Cup Final

Alternatively, you can wait until the FA Cup final kicks off at 16:45 BST before placing your bets. Many customers like to wager on the action when it’s underway, and you’ll find lots of live markets and the odds updating in real time. There are short-term markets that are settled within minutes along with the more traditional ones such as Match Winner and Total Goals.

Where to Watch the FA Cup Final

The 2022 FA Cup final will be screened in countries across the world. In the UK, the match will be televised live on BBC and ITV, the first time that both channels have shown the clash since 1988. Further afield, there are a number of different broadcast partners, and that includes NENT, which has the rights to show the game in Denmark, Finland and Norway.

beIN Sports will be streaming the FA Cup final in France, and the same rights provider has the game in the Middle East and North Africa, while ESPN is showing the game in the US and in Australia. There might also be a Bet and Watch service available with some of the best soccer betting sites, allowing you to watch the FA Cup final through a bookmaker service.

FA Cup Final Tips

Despite Chelsea’s recent downturn in form, we think Liverpool are a short price to win this game in 90 minutes. Thomas Tuchel’s side will surely raise their game for an FA Cup final, and they had chances to win the Carabao Cup final. Therefore, we are predicting a draw in normal time and the prospect of an additional 30 minutes.

However, it’s hard to imagine there will be another goalless draw, and a 1-1 scoreline at 6/1 holds more appeal. Let’s not forget that the teams have played out a 1-1 draw at Anfield this season before a 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge, so this could be a sensible bet to place.

In terms of a 2022 FA Cup final Bet Builder, we would suggest:

• Match to End in a Draw
• Sadio Mane to Score
• Antonio Rudiger to Get Booked
• Over 3.5 Cards
• Under 10.5 Corners

You could get this Bet Builder at 90/1 at the time of writing.
