What betting markets are available?
The Super Bowl is the biggest sporting event in the U.S. so there is huge gambling interest in the game. There are many betting markets that include match betting, individual betting and statistics betting.
Because the game is divided into four quarters (and, of course, two halves) there are also a lot of markets available for each quarter (and, of course, for each half).

Final Note
Although the Rams have been brilliant all season and the Patriots suffered quite a few defeats it may be just one match too far for the Rams who are playing seasoned Super Bowl winners and are still smarting over their shock defeat to the Eagles last season – as opposed to last year, we back the Patriots to win this year.
