Recommended Tennis Best Bets This Week

You can place bets on the winners before the game of the year. As of now, the recommended bets are as follows:

Bet

Odds

Why It’s a Good Bet

Novak Djokovic to win the French Open

+200

Even though Djokovic is facing tough competition this year, his odds of winning are great, and he’s after the Grand Slam record.

Aryna Sabalenka to win the French Open

+250

Sabalenka is in tough competition, and it’s likely that there will be resistance by the reigning champion, Swiatek, but the odds are in Sabalenka’s favor.

Name the Finalists: Carlos Alcaraz vs. Casper Ruud

+380

If you think Alcaraz will beat Jokovic and Ruud is likely to beat Zverev, this is the bet.

Tennis Best Bet Analysis

This Friday, Djokovic and Alcaraz will meet in the French Open semifinals; it will be a tough match, seeing as Alcaraz is currently number one in the world while Djokovic is at No.3 on the ATP Rankings.

However, if Djokovic defeats Alcaraz and proceeds to the finals, he’s likely to win the tournament. And he mustn’t forget that he’s trying to win another Grand Slam and get the record for the most Slam titles ever.

On the other hand, betting on Alcaraz to win more than 20 games seems like a safe bet, seeing as the game will probably have to be taken to 5 sets. Even though Alcaraz might still lose the match after winning 20+ games, he’ll definitely give a strong resistance.

On the women’s court, Iga Swiatek and Aryana Sabalenkaare the two main contenders for the title, being ranked first and second, respectively. Swiatek has won Roland Garros twice before – in 2020 and 2022 – and is now after two consecutive titles.

However, Sabalenka is trying to win her first French Open. The fact that she won the Australian Open this year works in her favor.
