That classic Sunday feeling in Mzansi, when the smoke from the braai hangs in the air as everyone’s arguing whether Chiefs or Pirates is better like it’s the gospel. You already know that’s soccer talk, so why not add a small bet when you think you know the outcome of the match and get lucky?
If you’re new to betting online, don’t worry. Decimal odds are simple, if the price is 2.50, that means R100 returns R250, including the stake. Stick to the basics, trust your knowledge, and pick your spots wisely.
Where to bet
You can find soccer under Sports on YesPlay. Here, you’ll find both local and global tournaments, from PSL to the major European leagues, as well as international qualifiers.

When you are ready to start placing bets, head on over to the YesPlay soccer website. If you want to place bets on lines posted before the game, use the Prematch tab. Or, if you prefer to bet on games currently being played, use the Live tab.
Key markets
• Match result 1X2: Pick a Home win, Draw, or Away win.
• Totals: Guess whether the total amount of goals is going to be Over or Under the set goal line.
• Handicap: This bet allows you to back a favourite with a minus line or the underdog with a plus.
• Both Teams to Score: Pick yes or no and hope that both teams either do or do not score a goal.
• More markets: Open the extra list on a fixture to find added angles to bet on.
• Settlement basics: Most bets end after 90 minutes plus stoppage time. Extra time and penalties don’t count for those markets. If you want to bet on a team to lift the cup, then extra time and penalties do count.
• Live tools: Here at YesPlay you’ll be able to track real-time scores, time left on the clock, and cards that were given out. For some big games, there may be a live stream available for you to watch.
