Live Tennis Betting
Live tennis betting is easy to follow at Betsafe. Ongoing matches from across all tournaments during the big tennis season are listed on this page. The action starts early with January's Australian Open Grand Slam and its preceding warm-up tournaments.The season then rolls right on through late autumn, with no let-up in the tournaments or the number of matches. It's common to see more than one tennis tournament played in the same week, so that means there is ample live tennis betting available at Betsafe!
To get into the live tennis action, you can browse the list of in-play matches and those scheduled as upcoming ones. For the matches that have already started, you can scroll down the list of in-play tennis fixtures and pick out the action that you are most interested in.
Live tennis betting works in the same way as pre-match tennis markets do. You pick out your selections and add them to the bet slip. The only difference is that the live tennis odds are based on the current state of play in a match, so you will see them regularly updated as the match progresses.
Popular Live Tennis Bets
Live tennis bets give punters different markets than pre-match ones. The most significant area of this is a narrowed focus on the results of individual games. The "Winner of the Next Game" in a tennis match can be called, alongside options like the "Correct Score" of a current set.When you see Fast Markets listed, that pulls the focus in even tighter, as picks for betting on the "Winner of the Next Point" can be taken. But alongside those nuanced live bet options, popular markets like "Match Winners" and "Game Handicap" can be taken—again, the odds reflecting the status of play in the match.
Here are some popular in-play live tennis markets:
- Match Winner
- Games Handicap
- Set X Games Total
- Set X Handicap
- To Win Game X
- Will Set X Go To Tie-break
- Total Games Odd/Even
It could be waiting to leverage an in-play position to hedge a pre-match bet by backing the other player to win when the odds and match conditions are in your favour. One of the prominent things about live-in-play betting is that it adds great flexibility to your tennis betting.
Live Tennis Features
The live tennis betting at Betsafe also has some great features to give our customers a bigger, better, and higher-quality experience. It's more than just the odds we serve up; you can enjoy a visual infographic of the in-play action.The live score can be followed with this feature, along with the result of the current point. It also lets you track minor details, like who is on serve. To further study the game in action, the in-game statistics link provides excellent info about how the match plays out.
Current form, player rankings, recent results, and up-to-the-minute text updates giving a point-by-point breakdown of all matches add some fantastic statistical insights.
Our popular Cash Out tool can be found on selected live tennis betting markets. If you have taken an in-play bet covered by the feature, you can keep an eye out for offers that come in to settle the wager early.
The advantage of that could be taking a Cash Out offer on a winning bet rather than risking it riding to its conclusion. Settling losing bets early, meanwhile, can avoid a complete loss of stake on a selection if things don't quite pan out the way you expected them to.
Another great feature at Betsafe is live-streaming throughout our extensive sportsbook. That is a feature that pairs brilliantly with in-play betting because you can watch the action while having the latest live tennis betting markets on the screen simultaneously.
ATP and WTA Live Tennis
The ATP and WTA deliver the leading professional tournaments, with events running from across the world throughout the year. There are different tiers of tennis, with the ATP and WTA 1000 events like the Rogers Cup being the highest-ranking point events outside the Grand Slams.The four Grand Slams tournaments in Australia, France, England, and the US are the pinnacle of the sport, with the most coveted titles. There is a full calendar of top tennis action, from the big European swings of a season to the autumn tours across North America, right through to the ATP World Tour Finals and WTA Finals.
It is good to become familiar with the different tiers of tennis action. The game's big stars will naturally gravitate towards the higher-tier events with the biggest prizes and ranking points available.
So lower-tiered tennis events, while not quite having the star-power pull, are still great for studying because many matches come with more evenly-balanced Match Winner odds.
How to Bet on Live Tennis
Live tennis betting is easy at Betsafe. You can regularly find more than 20 in-play bet options for tennis matches, providing great variety. Click on a match, and the latest markets for it will be presented next to the main listings.That makes it easy to switch between different matches, as the live panel gets updated and not the main listing of matches. The Betsafe bet slip stays on the screen, so everything is in one place for your live tennis betting.
You will see the latest scores for each of the listed matches, plus the "Match Winner" market odds, which is handy if you want to build a live tennis parlay from the various matches. The default market view can be changed to "Games Handicap" or "Set Winner," which updates all listed fixtures.
