Popular Tennis Betting Options

Match Betting: Match betting is the most basic tennis betting option. Punters make a selection in any given match based on player form or odds, and then await the result of the match.

Set Betting: Punters can bet on individual sets in a number of ways. The first set betting option is to bet on the winner of a specific set by backing a specific player.

The second set betting option available to punters requires the prediction of the final score in the match according to the number of sets won by each player. This variant of set betting tends to offer higher odds than simply predicting the winner of a particular set.

Betting on a tournament winner: Opportunities to bet on a tournament winner are usually available months in advance of the most prestigious tennis tournament.

The ante-post odds on offer can be quite high, allowing punters to back multiple players, thereby increasing their chances of generating a payout from these bets. With most UK sportsbooks offering free tennis bets - you have to take full advantage.
