How to Bet on Tennis & Odds Explained
Tennis opens itself up to a world of bets. At Stake, we offer competitive odds across a wide range of markets for bettors to feast on at the US Open.
Typically, the odds will reflect the chances or probability of an event occurring, and prices will be displayed in a mixture of formats, including American odds, where the favourite will be denoted with a minus (-) sign and the underdog will have a positive (+) sign attached. We have run through some of the most popular markets out there that will cater to the needs of novices and more seasoned bettors.
Match/Main Bets
Moneyline (Head to Head): The easiest way to bet on tennis is a straight-up moneyline bet (often referred to as a head-to-head bet in tennis). Your job is to pick the winner of a match, with the odds based on how likely one player is to defeat another. Read our moneyline betting guide to learn more.
Outright: This is another easy type of bet, similar to a moneyline, however in a futures, or outright bet, you bet on the individual tennis player to win the entire tournament. Check out our outright betting guide for more information.
Correct score: In tennis, you can bet on the correct score of a match. So, if you think Nadal will defeat Djokovic two sets to nil in an upcoming ATP event, you can bet on 2-0 being the correct score for the encounter.
Over/Under (Total games): Another popular tennis bet is to wager on how many games you think will be played in a match. For instance, if Sakkari and Gauff are head-to-head in a 3-set match, the totals line might be set at 22.5 games. Your job is to bet whether more or fewer games than the totals line will be played, more commonly referred to as the over/under, respectively.
Handicap: Known as the point spread in other sports, a handicap bet is a great way of levelling things up on your betting slip. The favourite is given a deficit to overcome, while the underdog gets a headstart. A headstart of 3.5 games might be given to the underdog, meaning that the favourite you’re betting on would need to win the set by at least 4 games to cover the spread and win your bet.
Double result (1st set/match): It’s also possible to place a double bet on a tennis match, which sees you back the same player to win the first set and then the match outright. This is an effective way of building value into your betting slip.
Set Bets
X set winner (pick the winner of specific sets): How many times have you seen a game of tennis go back and forth on the court? A fun bet is to wager which player you think will win each respective set in a match instead of merely picking an outright winner.
X set total games (Over/Under): Another popular set bet in tennis is predicting how many games will be played in the set. Fancy a whitewash of 6-0 to the defending champion? Or do you think it will be a tight 6-4 first set? The line might be set at 8.5, and your job is to predict whether more or fewer games will be played in the set.
1st set correct score: The first set in a tennis match is often unpredictable, but it provides a great opportunity to predict the correct score between two players. Be it 6-2 or 5-7, you can wager the expected outcome of the first set to add value to your tennis betting slip.
Exact sets: Will the matchup go the distance, or will one player wrap things up without reply? Bet on the exact sets of a particular tennis match as another way of enhancing your tournament betting slip.
Tennis betting is fun and we have shared a few useful tips that you should latch onto:
Look for value - Do your research and track the best odds that will give you value for money with your wager. So, if Novak Djokovic was facing some unheralded youngster in the first round, don’t just plump on the match winner; explore and look for other markets, such as total games Over/Under if you want to bolster your profits.
Don’t take things at face value - While you might be deluged with tips and insights, do your own research and identify trends and patterns in matches before placing bets.
Manage your bankroll well - The foundation of good betting practice is to take care of your bankroll and not spend more than you can afford. If in doubt, check out our customer support guide for further details.
