Both men’s and women’s tennis matches are analyzed. Bettors with experience in studying the statistics of previous meetings can find helpful information and apply it to their future bets. Also, betting tennis must be performed by you. For example, you may notice that a particular tennis player only sometimes wins or loses cleanly. The number of sets is often three or five. It all depends on the format of the tournament.
In this situation, it is logical to study the tennis market first, then bet on the total, more in sets. The quote from the bookmaker is high if, initially, there are two opponents of different strengths. Essentially, you are betting money that your weaker opponent will win at least one set. There is another similar type of total bet on sets. It is a handicap on a weak opponent in sets of +1.5.
Secrets of betting on tennis matches when choosing totals by sets
When you go to matches in regular tournaments, not Grand Slams, you are predicting three-set matches. That is how men and women play. Grand Slam tournaments, which are held four times a year, involve five-set matches. This factor is vital if you want to make betting on tennis matches when choosing totals by sets. With women’s tennis, this factor is ignored since the format of matches always stays the same.
For such a bet to be genuinely profitable, it makes sense to find the following match:
- Where two tennis players with approximately the same level of talent are closely ranked.
- Tennis players vary in strength, but the favorite has injuries or fatigue.
- There’s a match going on where the original favorite is playing on a surface he doesn’t like.
The court surface factor plays a vital role in tennis, and you must use it in your sports betting. There is universal hard, slow clay, and specific grass on which very few professional tournaments are played. And if there is an initial favorite who does not play well on clay, as well as an outsider, but with successful matches on these courts, then the probability of a total in sets increases. You must look at the players’ performance history in detail to find such matches. Particular attention should be paid to the type of coating. You can also break the total in sets live, but it is better to check the market for each match separately since the bookmaker gives the most comprehensive lines specifically for matches held as part of top tournaments.
