Is It Possible to Bet Online on the Tour de France?

In our world, people can bet on almost anything, let alone the most prestigious cycling
competition in the world. Tour de France usually hits the sports world sometime in July and
consists of 21 stages over 23 days. The Grand Race is a maddening endurance check for
the top cyclists from all over the world.

Facts: Tour de France 2020
For the first time after 1981, Nice is planning to welcome the Grand Départ (Great
Departure) of Tour de France’s 107th edition.

The race is set to start on June 27 and will entertain cycling enthusiasts till July 19, 2020.

22 teams of 8 cyclists will try to make it in the Tour de France this year.

How to choose the right bookmaker.

There are some general criteria to follow when searching for a bookie:
● 24-hour customer support
● Attention on security and privacy
● A great mobile app or a responsive website
● Plenty of payment options
● Bonuses and promotions
● Fast payouts

While betting on cycling in general, and Tour de France particularly, it is essential to look into the betting markets the bookmakers in question offer. Some fundamental markets for Tourde France include:

● Race Winner or Yellow Jersey
● Classifications winners, such as Polka Dot Jersey for King of the Mountains’ race,
Green Jersey for sprinters, White Jersey for “best rider under the age of 25”, and
many other minor classifications
● Stage Winners markets include plenty of opportunities for betting, as there are 21
stages overall
● Prop Bets usually include markets such as future races, team winners, top three, top
ten, head-to-head etc.

It is also important to mention that in-play betting and betting exchanges are still unavailable for the Tour de France.

BetVictor, BetFred, Ladbrokes, Coral, and BetWay are some of the best bookmakers that
usually offer pretty incredible odds for the Tour de France.

Is there a particular strategy to win?
As we have already mentioned, Tour de France consists of 21 stages, so it is important to
“play the long game.”

Look into statistics
It is crucial to know what happened in stage races before the Tour de France, to be able to
analyse the whole picture. A good punter studies the teams and monitors separate player
performances.

Track daily activities
It is easier to bet as the race progresses. The Tour de France lasts 3 weeks, but the
situation, the players’ physical condition, and overall dynamics change daily. It is important
to follow the news to stay updated on injuries, races, personal drama, and whatnot.

Keep an eye on the team
Although one cyclist can do the impossible on a particular segment of the race, it is essential to keep in mind who the team members are and how capable they are.

Conclusion
The Tour de France tends to be an exciting experience for everyone: fans, bookmakers and
bettors alike. Getting ready by choosing a bookmaker and an excellent strategy ahead of
time will give you an edge if you decide to bet on this monumental event. Bettingmetrics can help you with this by allowing you to compare odds by different bookmakers and giving you some professional tips!
