How to Bet on Tennis at Dafabet

Tennis betting is exciting and offers plenty of ways to wager, from simple match winners to predicting set scores. Whether you’re betting on Grand Slam tournaments or smaller events, here’s a breakdown of the top betting strategies and how they work.

1. Match Winner (Moneyline Bet)

The simplest bet—just pick who will win the match.

• Example: Novak Djokovic (-200) vs. Carlos Alcaraz (+150)

  • Djokovic (-200): You need to bet $200 to win $100.

  • Alcaraz (+150): A $100 bet wins $150 if he wins.

2. Set Winner

Bet on who will win a specific set rather than the whole match.

• Example: Rafael Nadal to win Set 1

  • If he wins the first set, your bet wins—even if he loses the match.

3. Correct Set Score

Predict the exact score of the match in terms of sets.

• Example: Daniil Medvedev to win 3-1

  • If he wins the match 3 sets to 1, you win the bet.

4. Total Games (Over/Under Betting)

Bet on whether the total number of games played in a match will be over or under a set number.

• Example: Over/Under 22.5 games

  • If the match ends 6-4, 7-6 (23 total games), the Over bet wins.

  • If the match ends 6-3, 6-4 (19 total games), the Under bet wins.

5. Handicap Betting (Game or Set Handicap)

The stronger player is given a disadvantage to even out the odds.

• Example: Stefanos Tsitsipas -3.5 games vs. Jannik Sinner +3.5 games

  • If Tsitsipas wins 6-4, 6-4 (by 4 total games), your bet wins.

  • If he wins 7-6, 6-7, 6-4 (only by 2 games), your bet loses.

6. First Set Over/Under Games

Bet on whether a set will have more or fewer games than a set number.

• Example: Over/Under 9.5 games in Set 1

  • If Set 1 ends 6-4 (10 games), the Over bet wins.

  • If it ends 6-3 (9 games), the Under bet wins.

7. Both Players to Win a Set

Bet on whether both players will win at least one set.

• Example: Yes – Both Players to Win a Set

  • If the match ends 6-3, 3-6, 6-4, you win.

  • If one player wins in straight sets (6-4, 6-4), you lose.

8. Tie-Break in Match?

Bet on whether any set will go to a tie-break.

• Example: Yes – Tie-break to occur

  • If a set goes 7-6, your bet wins.

9. Futures Betting (Tournament Winner)

Bet on who will win an entire tournament before it starts.

• Example: You bet on Carlos Alcaraz to win Wimbledon before the event begins. If he wins, you cash in!

10. Live (In-Play) Betting

Bet on ongoing matches with changing odds.

• Example: After losing the first set, Medvedev’s odds improve. You bet on him to make a comeback and win the match.
