Tennis betting strategy by sets

You can bet on tennis with increased odds at the end of the second set. To do this, you need a convenient account. But there is also a risk. In this article, we will analyze the types of tennis betting by game, the basics of analysis and betting strategy before the third set.

Terms and rates in tennis

A set or game is the largest unit of score in a match. This is the equivalent of a half in football, a period in hockey, or a quarter in basketball.

In the men's Grand Slam tournaments, games are played up to three wins in sets. In the vast majority of other competitions, it is enough to take two games: in singles and doubles for men and women.

In each set, the game goes up to six games. With a score of 5:5, there are two options: 7:5 in someone's favor or a tie-break at 6:6.

Tie-breaks are played up to seven points or up to two points difference at 6:6.

By the way, the longest set in history lasted 8 hours and 11 minutes. The record was set in 2010 at Wimbledon by John Isner and Nicolas Mayu.

We list the main offers of bookmakers for betting in sets.

• Outcome is a bet on winning.
• Set / Match - the winner of the first game and the entire meeting.
• Accurate set score.
• Handicap by sets or games - the victory of one of the parties, taking into account the handicap by sets or games.
• Total by sets or games — the number of games in a set or games in a match.
• Set scoring - which set will have more games.

There is a “sets” tab in the match line. It repeats the main outcomes with odds per game.

For example, you predict a tennis player to win in two sets. Choose any of the bets with the highest odds:

• victory with a handicap (-1.5) in sets,
• total sets under 2.5,
• victory in the first game and in the match,
• exact score in sets 2:0.

Pre-match analysis: statistics, head-to-heads and coverage

Conduct a pre-match analysis for live or pre-match tennis betting. What do we pay attention to.

• Analysis of player statistics. Check out the latest scores, rest time and match duration.
• The history of head-to-head confrontations. In tennis, everyone has an uncomfortable opponent when one of the players dominates in head-to-head matches. For example, Serena Williams won 19 matches in a row against Maria Sharapova.
• Last news. Study any information about injuries, recent interviews and social networks of players.
• Coverage and playing style. On hard and grass the ball flies faster. On such surfaces, they often take games on their serve. On the ground, those who play well on the back line have an advantage. For example, Rafael Nadal won 12 times at Roland Garros, and Roger Federer won eight times at Wimbledon.

Live tennis betting strategy

Experienced bettors in live bet on the victory of one of the tennis players at the end of the second set. By the decisive game, you will understand the form of the participants in the match.

For example, two tennis players from the top 20 ranking meet. The coefficient for the victory of each in the pre-match did not exceed 2.30. The score in sets is 1:0, but in the second installment it is 3:5 in games.

At this moment, you can catch a coefficient of about 2.40-2.60 for the victory of the second player in the match. With further equality in the parties, the bookmaker will equalize the odds in the region of two. You will bet on more favorable terms.

This can give a plus at a distance, but there are risks. There is no guarantee that at 5:3 the leading player in the game will definitely take a set.
