According to the preliminary results of Euro 2020, Russian bookmakers earned almost 100 billion rubles more at Euro 2020 than at the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
According to expert data, the figures on bets made during the European Championship, postponed to the current year 2021, exceeded the data for the 2018 World Cup by thirty-five percent, which roughly gives us an amount of 340 billion rubles, compared to 250 billion for the world championship.
As previously was reported the European Championship, whose matches were hosted by Russia, predicted a significant increase in the volume of sports betting for bookmakers even before its start.
We also note that the Head of the Association of Bookmakers Darina Denisova called the European Football Championship the main event in the betting calendar.
