Premier Lacrosse League betting occupies a distinctive niche in the sports wagering landscape. The PLL's high-scoring, up-tempo format — games regularly land in the 12-18 goal range — creates natural volatility that oddsmakers must account for. With only eight teams and a compressed schedule running from June through September, the player pool is small enough that a single injury to a face-off specialist or top attackman can shift a line significantly. Market depth remains relatively thin compared to major professional leagues; most books offer moneylines, spreads (typically set at 1.5 to 3.5 goals), and game totals, but prop markets and futures are inconsistent and often limited to the largest sportsbooks.
Vig on PLL markets tends to run wider than what bettors encounter in the NFL or NBA. Because handle volume is lower and oddsmakers have less historical data to sharpen their models, books build in extra margin to protect themselves. It's common to see combined moneyline vig in the 8-12% range, though spreads can be slightly tighter. This makes line shopping particularly valuable — the difference between books on a PLL spread can easily represent two or three percentage points of implied edge. Early-season lines, when rosters are still settling and books have the least confidence in their power ratings, often carry the widest margins. As the season progresses into the playoff rounds in September, increased betting interest and sharper public data tend to compress the vig modestly.
Several factors deserve close attention when evaluating PLL odds. Face-off win percentage is arguably the most underappreciated stat, as possession volume directly correlates with scoring opportunities in a sport with limited possessions compared to basketball. Weather matters more than casual bettors realize — rain and wind can suppress scoring and dramatically alter totals. The PLL's touring model, which sends all teams to different venues each weekend rather than maintaining traditional home arenas, eliminates conventional home-field advantage, meaning bettors should disregard home/away splits and focus instead on rest days between games, travel logistics, and head-to-head matchup history between specific defensive and offensive units.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the best PLL lines today?
The table below shows which sportsbook has the best available price on each side of every upcoming PLL event. Line shopping across multiple books can save you 1–3% per bet compared to sticking with a single sportsbook.
What is vig (vigorish) in sports betting?
Vig — short for vigorish, also called juice or overround — is the margin a sportsbook builds into its odds. It's the difference between the true probability of an outcome and what the odds imply. Lower vig means you keep more of your winnings on every bet. For example, a standard -110/-110 line has about 4.76% vig.
How often is this data updated?
We pull fresh odds from The Odds API three times per day — at 6:00 AM, 2:00 PM, and 10:00 PM UTC. Each snapshot captures the latest lines from every sportsbook that has posted odds. The timestamp at the top of the page shows the most recent refresh.
How is the vig grade calculated?
Each sportsbook is graded on a letter scale based on average vig: A+ (under 2%) is exceptional, A (2–3%) is excellent, B+ (3–4%) is above average, B (4–5%) is the industry standard, C (5–6%) is below average, and D (above 6%) indicates high-juice markets.
Why does lower vig matter for bettors?
Lower vig directly impacts your long-term returns. A bettor placing $1,000 per week at a book with 4% vig loses roughly $40/week to the house edge. At 2% vig, that drops to $20/week — a $1,040 difference over a year. For serious bettors, shopping for lower vig is one of the most reliable ways to improve profitability.
What sportsbooks do you track?
We track both regulated US sportsbooks (DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars) and offshore books (Bovada, BetOnline, MyBookie, BetUS, LowVig.ag, BetAnySports). Data comes from The Odds API, which aggregates real-time lines from licensed sources.
How We Calculate These Numbers
- Data Source
- All odds on this page come from The Odds API, which aggregates real-time lines from licensed US and offshore sportsbooks. We track moneyline, spread, and totals markets across every sport with active betting lines.
- Update Frequency
- We pull a fresh snapshot of every tracked market three times per day — at 6:00 AM, 2:00 PM, and 10:00 PM UTC. Each snapshot captures the latest lines from every sportsbook that has posted odds for a given event. The timestamp at the top of each page tells you exactly when the data was last refreshed.
- Vig Calculation
- Vig (short for vigorish, also called juice or overround) measures the margin a sportsbook builds into its odds. We calculate it by converting the odds on each side of a market to implied probabilities, summing those probabilities, and subtracting 100%. For example, a market priced at -110/-110 implies 52.38% on each side — a total of 104.76%, meaning a vig of 4.76%. Lower vig means better value for bettors because you keep more of your winnings.
- Per-Market Breakdown
- We compute vig separately for each market type: moneyline (h2h), point spreads, and totals (over/under). The "average vig" shown for each sportsbook is the mean across all market types weighted by the number of events sampled in each market.
- Grading Scale
- Every sportsbook receives a letter grade based on its average vig: A+ (under 2%) is exchange-level pricing. A (2–3%) is very competitive. B+ (3–4%) is above average. B (4–5%) is the industry standard — a -110/-110 line is 4.76%. C+ (5–6%) is slightly below average. C (6–7%) is below average. D (7–8%) is high vig. D− (8–10%) is very high vig. F (10%+) is predatory pricing. See the full Vig Index Methodology for formulas, worked examples, and known limitations.
- Trend Tracking
- We store daily snapshots for 30 days, allowing us to show 24-hour and 7-day vig trends. A downward trend (improving) means sportsbooks are tightening their lines — often in response to increased competition or higher betting volume as a season heats up.
