Ladbrokes Free Bet Ladbrokes Review

Site Overview

The UK’s biggest bookmaker sticks to its famous colours on its online sportsbook, with somewhat eye jarring results. Colour scheme aside the Ladbrokes sportsbook is well put together, with the homepage featuring several brief profiles of the day’s betting highlights.

The immediate emphasis of the sportsbook homepage is on football, horseracing and greyhound racing. The homepage also encourages users to get involved in live play betting, linking off to live events in progress.

Ease of Use

A unique feature of the Ladbrokes sportsbook design is the allocation of dedicated pages for horseracing, greyhound racing and football. All other sports are listed under a separate ‘sports’ page or can be accessed from a drop-down menu bar.

This is a useful innovation, as the content of the racing and football pages are specifically geared towards the sports in question, allowing site users to access relevant statistics, results and previews without losing sight of the betting opportunities on offer. This also makes for a less cluttered site.

Whilst the Ladbrokes sportsbook offers convenient features such as a live betting slip, betting search and instant account balance access, the site does not offer live help – problematic if you run into difficulties with your account or betting.

Special Features

The Ladbrokes sportsbook offers the following features:

* A live scores page that allows you to track the action in a wide variety of sports across the world.
* Audio commentary on English and Irish horseracing, greyhound racing and football. This feature also offers previews and roundups of racing and football.
* A dedicated specials page that allows you to bet on a variety of non-sport related events, from Big Brother to the elections.

Site Rating

The Ladbrokes sportsbook is an excellent resource for football and racing betting, however this specialisation is also something of a weakness as there is a relative lack of information and live coverage of other major sports. The absence of bonuses and specials also counts against the site, leaving the Ladbrokes sportsbook review to conclude with a Gambling Guru rating of: 7/10.
