Today, the world is continuously battling for the COVID-19 pandemic, which has immensely affected the world economy. Since the start of this outbreak, a lot of businesses are declining their sales, job opportunities are also getting low, while workers and people are not allowed to go out from their homes.
In line with economic distraught, sports betting is one of the markets that had vastly descended in income due to some sports getting an indefinite suspension. As such, sports bettors cannot find a way to earn money, and bookies cannot generate an income like they were previously making when days are still normal.
While it’s true that most of the businesses are suffering from huge profit loss this year, sports betting is looking forward to bouncing back in sales as we start the second half of this year. Since bettors are staying in-home quarantine, betting is taking place online. Online oddsmakers like FanDuel Sportsbook are creating betting odds for incoming sports that can help you enjoy smooth and entertaining gamble at home. Let’s take a look at some upcoming sports happening that offer massive betting games that you can wager online.
2020 Major Baseball League (MLB)
The 2020 Major Baseball League is originally scheduled to take place on March 26, 2020. It is an annual sporting event that happens on the said day. Since the COVID-19 pandemic hit America in late February, the MLB organization decided to terminate the opening of this league right away.
However, as major sporting events are coming back to the spotlight, the MLB is also hitting back in as early as June this year. Although there is no exact date announced by the MLB organization yet, they are continuously laying out a game plan that would showcase a shorter tournament and the same online betting games for wagers. Something that can keep up to the new normal, but with the same intensity of enjoyment for the crowd.
2020 National Football League (NFL)
The 2019-2020 NFL League was a great success this year as it ended at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. The football fans have been looking forward to another season this year ever since the drafting started last April 23-25, 2020. As the event progresses, the NFL team is setting new dates to make this happen, despite having the Coronavirus outbreak still on-air.
Earlier last month, the NFL organization has laid-out a 17-week schedule of football matches, which will start by September this year. Hence, the Super Bowl players are beginning to train, given that some of them are making a debut play in top teams. Alongside with that, this is another opportunity for the bettors to look forward to gambling online.
