To place a bet, look at the Spreadex prediction or spread on the market in question. If you think the outcome will be higher than our price, then you would buy on the spread. If you think the outcome will be lower than our price, then you would sell on the spread.

The more right you are the more you can win, but the opposite is the case if you get it wrong, as you may lose more than your initial stake.

See the links on the left-hand side for detailed descriptions on the tennis betting markets offered by Spreadex, including our fixed odds tennis betting prices.

TRAINING ON HOW TO PLACE A tennis SPREAD BET

Try our interactive widget below for examples of how tennis spread betting works for a theoretical £10 bet on different markets.

Alternatively, read on for more examples explaining how to place a tennis spread bet.

The widget shows in more detail how spread betting markets can differ in volatility. For example, the range of the outcomes for a Total Points or X-Courts spread bet is greater than for the 10-5 Supremacy or Total Games markets, which in turn are more volatile than Player Aces. Therefore, it is important to choose a stake level you are comfortable with for different markets.

Try using the widget for different tennis markets to see how potential profit and loss levels can vary. This will help you practice tennis spread betting and give you an idea of how the markets work before you try for real yourself.

TENNIS SPREAD BETTING ‘BUY’ EXAMPLE

It’s the Australian Open final, and you think it is going to go the distance, so take a look at Spreadex’s Total Games spread betting market.

Spreadex is offering a Total Games spread of 34-36, and you decide to buy £5 at 36. As you expected, the final is a 5-set thriller, finishing 7-6 1-6 7-6 4-6 6-4. That’s a Total Games make-up of 53, leaving you with a profit of £85 ((53 – 36) x £5).

If the final went to 4 sets, finishing 6-4 6-3 5-7 6-2, you would net a profit of £15 ((39 – 36) x £5).

But in this instance a straight sets victory, for example 6-4 6-3 6-4, would leave you with a loss of £35 ((29 – 36) x £5).

TENNIS SPREAD BETTING ‘SELL’ EXAMPLE

Heading into the climax of Wimbledon, you think the favourite is going to sweep to victory in straight sets, so you take a look at Spreadex’s Total Games spread betting market.

Spreadex is offering a Total Games spread of 36-38, and you opt to sell £5 at 36. In fine form, the favourite ends up with a 6-4 6-2 6-3 victory. That’s a Total Games make-up of 27, leaving you with profit of £45 ((36 – 27) x £5).

You could even sneak a profit if the final went to 4 sets, and saw a finish similar to 6-1 2-6 6-2 6-3. That’d leave you with winnings of £20 ((36 – 32) x £5).

However, you’d be in trouble if the match went to 5 sets, finishing 6-3 4-6 4-6 6-2 6-3 – that result would leave you with a loss of £50 ((36 – 46) x £5).

In-play tennis betting

One of the main attractions of sports spread betting is the vast array of in-play betting opportunities.

At Spreadex we offer a wide selection of in-play tennis spread betting markets on live games, with prices constantly updated as the action unfolds on the court.

In-play tennis bets allow you to open or close bets at any point after the start of the game up until the final point meaning you can close out of your bets early either to take profits or to cut losses.

In-play tennis betting also means your bet needn’t be over straight away as would be the case if, for example, you placed a fixed odds tennis bet on a Player A player to win the first set only for Player B to go into a one set to love lead.

Tennis supremacy bets

Game Supremacy: The winning margin, in games, that one player beats the other player by in a particular match. For example, Spreadex may quote Player A’s Game Supremacy at 2.6-3.6 over Player B. If Player A wins 6-1, 6-1 then the market will make-up at 10.

10-5 Match Supremacy: The winning margin of one player over the other player, based on 10 points being awarded for the win and five points for each set won by. E.g. If Player A beats Player B by 3 sets to love in a best of five sets match then the market will make-up at 25 ((10 +(3x5)).

Points Supremacy: How many more points will one player win over another, in total, in a match.

Games-related tennis bets

Total Games Played: Predict the total number of games played in a particular match.

So if Player A beats Player B 7-6, 4-6, 6-3 then total games would make-up at 32 (7+6+4+6+6+3 = 32).

Player Games: A prediction of how many games a named player win in a match.

Cross Courts: Player A’s set games won multiplied by Player B’s set games won, aggregated for each set played in a match.

For example, if Player A beats Player B 6-4, 4-6, 6-0 then Cross Courts will make-up at 48 ((6x4) + (4x6) + (6x0)).

Points-related tennis bets

Total Points Played: A prediction of the total number of points that will be played in a particular match. Spreadex may predict that between 150-155 points will be contested in total in a best of three sets match.

Total Match/Player Aces: A prediction of the total number of aces to be recorded in a match in total, or per player.

Total Match/Player Double Faults: A prediction of the total number double faults to be recorded in a match in total, or per player.

Index-based tennis bets

Index-related tennis spread bets are based on how many points players will get based on a certain points index.

Our Championship Index predicts how many points players will earn during a competition based on the following: 60 points awarded if the player wins the tournament, 40 to the runner-up, 20 to losing semi-finalists, 10 to losing quarter-finalists and 5 to players who go out in the last 16.

Spreadex may give a player a Championship Index quote of 11-14. If you think the player will reach the semi-finals at least you would buy on the quote. If you think the player will go out in the quarter-finals or earlier you would sell on the quote.
