The post-season period for football teams in the UK is now starting to end. An increasing number of teams are now starting to welcome back players that had not been involved in end of season international games, back into pre-season training.
Over the next few weeks, and especially when we hit the June 30th deadline when many players contracts will expire, precipitating them moving on to new clubs, we are going to see a number of transfer deals as teams try their best to snap up the players they want ahead of the new season.
Of course, for a football fan, it is an exciting time to watch and see which players your team buys and sells in order to try and improve on how they performed last season.
It is also a key time of the year when people start to place their bets on which team will win their division and this year, bet365 Sport have made that bet even more exciting by re-introducing their League Winner Early Payout offer for a dozen leagues around Europe.

What Is The Bet365 League Winner Early Payout Offer?
This offer from bet365 Sport will see customers that place an outright winner bet on any of the 12 leagues outlined in the terms and conditions below, be paid out early if the team that they pick goes ten or more points in front of their nearest challenger at any point in the season.
So for example, last season in December, Manchester City held a 10-point+ lead in the Premier League title race, so with this offer, if you had backed Manchester City to win the league last year, then you would have been paid out back then, rather than in May when they actually claimed the league title officially.
However, best of all, if your team goes 10 points clear during the season and you receive a payout, then you get to keep that cash even if your team does not go on to claim the league title.
There have been a few examples of that in recent years, notably when Manchester United gave away a 12-point lead over Arsenal in the 1997/98 season, while Newcastle United threw away a similar sized lead over Manchester United a couple of seasons earlier than that.
In these scenarios, bet365 Sport will pay out early on the team with the 10+ point lead in the division, plus they will also pay out the actual winner of the league title. And of course, if multiple teams land 10+ leads over the course of the season, then these will be paid out as winners too, though having multiple teams with leads like this is not likely to happen.
Let’s now take a look at the key terms and conditions of the offer.

Are There Any Teams That Could Likely Trigger This Bonus?
Yes, there are a number of teams that could see you trigger the early payout bonus, but as you would expect, the odds on these teams winning their respective leagues are generally pretty short.
- French Ligue 1 – Paris St Germain (1/10)
The most obvious contenders are Paris St Germain in the French Ligue 1. Backed by Qatari owners, the French side have built a superstar squad containing players like Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi amongst others.
Over the last few years, PSG have won the French League title more often than not and in several years, they have done so by a huge margin and if any team is going to open up a 10-point lead in their domestic league from the list that are part of this offer, PSG would be my pick.
Be mindful here though that the French side are a very short 1/10 favourite to win the French League, so while you may be paid out early, you may not get much in terms of winnings compared to your bet stake.
- German Bundesliga I – Bayern Munich (1/5)
Another obvious option to back here is the perennial German Champions, Bayern Munich, who usually have the Bundesliga wrapped up by the end of March each season, such has been their dominance at times over the last decade or so.
With Dortmund losing Erling Haaland and other teams like Leverkusen and Leipzig not really having the same quality as Bayern, the Champions should be even stronger next season and I’d expect them to win this league at a canter once again.
It seems to me that it is a case of when, not if, Bayern open up a 10+ point lead in the Bundesliga, but at odds of 1/5, you are not going to get rich when they do so, but you may well be paid out early!
Outlined below is a list of teams you could consider for eight of the other divisions that are part of this offer, in some cases, I have given you a couple of options, where both teams could either win their respective league and/or open up a 10+ point gap during the season to earn a payout for your bet with this bet365 offer.
- English Premier League – Man City (4/7), Liverpool (2/1)
- English Championship – Norwich City (6/1)
- English League 1 – Derby County (10/1)
- English League 2 – Mansfield Town (10/1)
- Scottish Premiership – Celtic (8/13), Rangers (5/4)
- Scottish Championship – Dundee (7/4)
- Italian Serie A – Inter Milan (15/8), Juventus (2/1), AC Milan (9/4)
- Spanish Primera Liga – Real Madrid (11/10), Barcelona (11/8)
Good luck for the season if you are placing your bet and remember, you have until the 1st September to place your bet to qualify for this great value early payout promo at bet365!
