How UK betting habits have changed in the face of COVID-19

The world’s economy has been warped immeasurably by the global outbreak of COVID-19, businesses have suffered, and people’s day-to-day lives have changed beyond belief.

There are many oddities that have arisen during these difficult times, some that will shape the way we live for many months and years to come and some that will only last for the duration of these troubling times. 

Whilst it’s certainly not even close to being one of the hardest-hitting issues the general public are faced with right now, the lack of live sport, and by extension live sports betting, has come as a shock to the system to so many that rely on it as their main form of entertainment.

Without the allure of the Premier League football, horse racing, boxing and other live sporting staples, people across the United Kingdom are turning to other forms of betting in order to keep themselves occupied during lockdown.
