A trio of football related stories to get your teeth into after Tempobet agreed on a sponsorship deal with Middlesbrough; Coral does likewise with WBA, and Sun Bets launches 60-second #YouBetcha ad on Sky Sports.

The Turkish-facing online gambling company Tempobet continues to focus a significant portion of its marketing muscle in the world of football after striking a deal with English Premier League (EPL) new boys Middlesbrough.

The deal is Tempobet’s second with an EPL side after recently securing terms to become Manchester City’s regional betting partner in the Asia-Pacific region. The terms of the deal will see Tempobet’s logo used on the Teeside club’s training kit. Tempobet will also display the clubs crest on their website and will advertise their brand at the Riverside Stadium.

Middlesbrough remains unbeaten after Week 2 in the EPL with a 1-1 draw at home to Stoke City, and a 1-2 away win against local rivals Sunderland in the bag. Sportsbook Bodog believes they will finish mid-table offering odds of +400 to be relegated back to the Championship at the first time of asking.
