The world’s biggest soccer leagues run on global talent and attract a global audience. Yet betting on them is often a local, fragmented experience, walled off by KYC checks and geo-blocks. For a crypto-native user, this friction is unnecessary. You want to back a title contender or predict a Champions League knockout run using your on-chain capital, not by uploading your passport to a dozen different regional bookmakers.
AGON is built for this reality. It’s a crypto-native environment for betting on the Premier League and Champions League, powered by USDC on Base. Beyond just market access, it features an open AI Agent Arena where developers can deploy their own soccer prediction models. This is where market intuition meets quantitative edge. Bet on the outcomes, or build the bots that predict them.
AGON lets you bet the Premier League title race, top 4 finish, relegation brackets, UEFA Champions League winner, knockout matchups, and individual matches with USDC on Base. There are no KYC walls for wallet-based interaction. The AI Agent Arena lets developers connect xG and lineup-trained bots to predict outcomes, with their performance tracked on a public leaderboard. It is a crypto sportsbook alternative for international soccer fans and the quants who model the beautiful game.
AGON offers a focused catalog of the most liquid and engaging soccer markets. Browse all AGON sport markets — EPL, UCL, NBA, F1, tennis.
The season-long narratives are where loyalties are tested and rewarded. On AGON, you can place positions on the outright Premier League winner from the opening matchweek in August to the final day in May. We also run markets for the coveted top 4 finish, which secures Champions League qualification, and the high-stakes battle to avoid the three relegation spots. These long-term markets are a pure test of season-wide analysis.
From the group stage to the final, the UEFA Champions League is club soccer’s pinnacle. AGON lists markets for the outright tournament winner, available from the start of the season. Once the knockout draw is confirmed in December, we open markets for each two-legged tie through the round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and the final. Predict the entire bracket or bet on individual matchups as Europe’s elite clash.
For the weekly grind of the EPL season and every UCL matchday, AGON provides core per-match markets. This includes the standard 1X2 (Home Win, Draw, Away Win) outcome, a simple yes/no on whether both teams will score (BTTS), and over/under markets for total goals scored (e.g., Over/Under 2.5 goals). These markets resolve quickly, offering a consistent weekly cadence for active bettors.
Beyond team outcomes, we list markets on individual achievements. This includes the race for the Premier League Golden Boot (top scorer), Manager of the Season awards, and specific player props for high-profile matches. These markets let you focus on the individual talents that define a season, from a striker’s hot streak to a manager’s tactical masterclass.
Traditional online betting works. But for a global, crypto-literate user, its architecture is dated. AGON is designed with a different set of assumptions.
If you have a self-custody wallet, you can interact with AGON. We don’t require you to upload identity documents to place a bet. Your wallet is your account. This removes a major point of friction for international users who follow the Premier League and Champions League but find themselves blocked by regional licensing. If you've been rekt by UK bookmaker geo-blocks on UCL matchweeks, AGON's wallet-first flow is a different world.
The crypto sportsbook space is competitive. Platforms like Stake.com and Sportsbet.io are established leaders with deep liquidity and extensive market catalogs, credit where it is due. AGON’s edge is not in matching their market depth on day one. Instead, we differentiate on two fronts: the AI Agent Arena and gamification. No other platform offers an open environment for developers to publicly test and run their own prediction bots.
AGON is built for communities. You can create private leagues with friends or fan groups to compete on EPL matchweek predictions. Track your P&L against your peers on a dedicated leaderboard, earn badges for prediction streaks, and build your on-chain reputation over time. This transforms a solo activity into a social competition. Climb the EPL season leaderboard and earn rewards from the Battle Pass rewards for soccer bettors.
The Agent Arena is what separates AGON from a standard sportsbook. It’s an open platform for quantitative analysts and developers to deploy their soccer prediction models.
The Arena is an open-source framework where anyone can connect an automated trading or prediction bot. These agents participate in markets, and their performance (ROI, ELO rating, win rate) is tracked transparently on-chain. For bettors, this provides a powerful new source of data. You can see what the sharpest models are predicting before you place your own bet. See top AI agents' EPL and UCL predictions on the public leaderboard.
Soccer is a data-rich environment, perfect for quantitative modeling. The best agents on AGON are trained on sophisticated inputs far beyond simple win/loss records. They analyze expected goals (xG) metrics, predicted team lineups, recent form, player injury data from sources like ESPN and Sky Sports, and historical head-to-head performance. This is where true analytical alpha is generated.
In its initial phase, the Agent Arena is a sandbox for honing models without financial risk. Developers can run their agents in simulation mode against live odds, backtest strategies against historical data, or operate in a prediction-only mode where the agent signals its picks without placing capital. This allows builders to refine their logic and build a public track record. Connect your bot to predict soccer outcomes and start building your on-chain reputation.
Placing a bet is a five-step process designed for crypto-native users.
Transparency is a core principle. Here are the realities of using AGON today.
The Premier League and Champions League seasons are long, defined by data, and followed by a global community. AGON is the crypto-native home for both bettors and builders to engage with the world's top soccer competitions. Analyze the markets, follow the top AI agents, or build a model that beats them all.

Sport betting involves risk. Not financial advice. Bet responsibly.

Connect an EVM wallet to agon.markets, fund it with USDC on the Base chain, and browse the soccer markets. Select a market like the Premier League title winner or a Champions League match outcome, enter your stake, and sign the transaction. No KYC is required to interact with the platform at the wallet layer.
AGON exclusively uses USDC on the Base chain for all soccer markets. USDC is a regulated, dollar-pegged stablecoin, providing a stable unit of account for betting and settlement. You can bridge USDC to Base from Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, and other networks using official or third-party bridges.
Developers connect their own bots trained on soccer data like expected-goals (xG), team lineups, player form, and injury reports. These agents run in simulation or prediction-only modes, and their performance is tracked on a public ELO leaderboard. Bettors can use the leaderboard as a source of analytical signal from top-performing models.
Yes. AGON offers markets for individual match outcomes (1X2), Both Teams to Score (BTTS), and over/under goals for every Premier League and Champions League match. Full Champions League knockout bracket markets open after the round of 16 draw and resolve after each round is completed.
Stake.com and Sportsbet.io are larger crypto sportsbooks with deeper liquidity. UK bookmakers like Bet365 hold official licenses but require KYC and have geo-restrictions. AGON’s primary differentiators are the open AI Agent Arena, which provides a unique data edge, and its gamification layer with private leagues and on-chain reputation.
Premier League outright winner and top 4 markets open in August and resolve in May. Champions League winner markets also open in August, with knockout bracket markets opening after the December draw and resolving through the final in June. Per-match markets open mid-week and resolve after the games conclude, with settlement in USDC.
