The 2022-23 football season has finally begun.
After a long summer of pre-season games and transfers – which saw Anthony sign for Manchester United right at the very end – fans can rejoice at the fact their favorite teams are back in action. Whether you watch Serie A, the Premier League, or LaLiga, you’re truly spoilt for choice. Not to mention, the FIFA World Cup 2022 is set to take place in the winter, meaning this is likely going to be one of the best football calendars of all time.
Whether you’re a diehard football fan or a newbie who has just recently discovered a new team, the following guide has some top tips and tricks for you. These tips and tricks will help you to get the most out of the 2022-23 season, meaning you’ll be able to make it one to remember.
Bet on the Games
Across Europe, betting is a big part of the football culture and has been for decades. Now, you no longer need to head to your local bookmakers to place bets. Instead, it’s all done online via betting apps.
You can bet on a variety of factors throughout the season, from which player you think will win the Ballon dOr to which country you think will win the World Cup. It’s some harmless fun that’s a great way to add a little extra excitement to an already exciting season.
In addition to this, millions of football fans will also be practicing their betting skills in online casinos, especially table games, which have now become a popular hobby amongst football fans – particularly those who watch from home and want something to do during the half-time breaks.
Interestingly, table games are some of the oldest in history and typically consist of four quadrants – or ‘tables’ (hence the name). They also employ cards and/or dice, making them incredibly simple to play in many cases. Incorporating luck, skill, or a mixture of both, table games – such as classics like poker and blackjack – are very popular in the casino industry because they are mind-engaging, thrilling, and afford entertainment unlike other pastimes due to the heightened desire players often have to win. There’s some detailed information here about table games if you’re interested.
Overall, many football fans enjoy playing table games when pasting the time in between the game intervals, half-time, and commercial breaks. They’re fun and exciting and provide a brain break from the game – not to mention, a half-time table game session often ends up just as entertaining as the football match itself!
Create a Fantasy Team
Fantasy football is one of the best parts of each football season. It’s an opportunity to test your football knowledge and have some light-hearted fun with your friends in your own league.
What Is Fantasy Football?
Fantasy football is when you assemble your own team based on real-life players. If your chosen real-life players perform well, then you will earn points and rise through your division. Each week, you can switch your players depending on their form and performance levels – it’s simple.
There are various fantasy football apps and websites out there, with one of the most popular ones being Fantasy Premier League, which is a big hit with European football fans.
Stream Games Using an Official Platform
Around the world, millions of people illegally stream football games each week. This is a big problem, especially when it comes to the big leagues like Serie A, where people simply don’t want to miss the games.
Illegally streaming games saves people money – but the experience received in exchange is never that good. The streams are usually low-quality, laggy, and several minutes behind the real-time action. All in all, it’s not a lot of fun.
Therefore, you should join an official streaming platform for the 2022-23 season. Sure, it will cost you a monthly fee (such as if you join Sky Sports), but it means you’ll be able to watch all the main games in HD quality. Finally, you can wave bye-bye to lag and pixelated video quality.
Follow Players and Clubs on Twitter
If you aren’t a part of #FootballTwitter, you don’t know what you’ve been missing out on.
Football Twitter is informative, exciting, and (at times) hilarious. On there, you get to interact with fellow fans as well as engage with rival fans, too (all in good nature).
On Twitter, you can also follow your favorite players and clubs, which then enables you to stay up-to-date with everything that’s going on behind the scenes; from training videos to injury updates.
Plus, if you have interesting takes and opinions, you’ll be able to gain potentially thousands of followers.
Try to Go to a Champions League Game
In world football, the Champions League is the most iconic tournament that there is. If you’re lucky enough to attend a Champions League game, you’ll never forget the experience. Therefore, it’s highly recommended that you try to go to at least one game this season – even if it means travelling to a different city. Quite simply, there’s no feeling like a Champions League night, which is exactly why Cristiano Ronaldo was so desperate to leave Manchester United this summer (as he wants to play Champions League football with another club, rather than the Europa League).
