Which Olympic betting tips are there?

What the ancient Greeks launched as a sporting competition more than 2700 years ago is now an event for millions of people around the globe. A huge global event, with spectators in the arenas and experts in front and behind the screens cheering the best athletes in the world. Also this year the Olympic Games 2021 promise a lot of excitement. 

Athletics in particular should not be neglected in Japan. Even if Usain Bolt, the big superstar and favorite of this scene, is no longer active, the focus will still be on sprints, jumping and throwing competitions and of course on running. Not to be forgotten among the Olympic tips are the team competitions.

King of sports remains football, but not in the Olympic Games. There it plays a minor role since the Olympic teams don’t feature their best players, rather than their U23’s and a couple of pros. But football remains king of sports betting and BetandSlots will offer you free Olympic Games tips and predictions, as such games usually focus on sports that otherwise do not always enjoy the big spotlight. This includes, of course, hockey, water polo or swimming. 

In our betting tips for the Olympics we will try to give you an overview of the favorites of the individual competitions. You can also find out in our betting tips for the Olympics how high the odds are and what you can bet on at the Olympics.

What is important for betting in the Olympics?

The most diverse bookmakers will again vie for the favor of the players during the Olympics. Be it Tipico, Betway or any other bookmaker, they all want a part of the big cake. Similar to other major events, the Olympic Games have long since ceased to be just about purely sporting matters. The Olympians are supported by numerous sponsors and a total of billions of euros are turned over at this event. Due to the large number of different sports, disciplines and of course the wide range of athletes, we advise caution here.

It doesn’t make sense to just bet on it. Only the greatest experts among you can bet in the dark. For example, if there is a competition in fencing, then you should already have some knowledge of this sport. Our experts from Bild Sportwetten will of course also report on sports that are not so well known to the general public in the respective Olympic betting tips and forecasts. Nevertheless, we would recommend only betting on competitions that you have a little knowledge of at the beginning.

Football, Athletics, Basketball, Tennis and Swimming bets

King football is at the top of the list of tipsters at the Olympic Games 2021 bets again. The world’s most popular sport will again cause a stir in Tokyo. Unlike the previous European Championship or the Copa America, the favorites are not so easy to name. Of course, nations like defending champions Brazil or the German team are mentioned here, but the really big stars are not to be expected this time.

One of the main reasons is likely to be the fact that the qualified teams will have the two big tournaments in Europe and South America just a few weeks earlier. There were the Neymar’s, Kane’s and De Bruyne’s of this world. Now in the Olympics 2021 the German U21 coach Stefan Kuntz is likely to nominate younger players for this team anyway. Nonetheless, the sport of soccer offers the traditional betting markets. We would recommend placing a long-term bet on “Who will be the Olympic champion?”. Further betting tips can be found in our Olympia 2021 forecasts. There is a lot of excitement this year and even the experts cannot identify a clear favorite for the gold medal.

Watch the preliminary rounds or qualification phase before betting

What is quite easy at the Olympic football tournament becomes quite tricky with betting tips for sports such as swimming or equestrian sports. Usually the competition here is regulated in such a way that there are at least two preliminary runs in which the wheat is separated from the chaff. Even if athletes have qualified for the Olympic Games, that does not mean that they will immediately be among the best in the world. With such preliminary rounds and races the risk is very high that a supposedly high rated athlete could collapse and take your bet down as well!

Take, for example, a boxing match in the first round. Here two quite unknown boxers face each other and one has relevantly high odds, which seem too tempting to avoid. Our advise is to look the other way during the Olympic Games. Unless you, or the tipster offering the betting advice is an absolute betting expert and has seen both fighters before.

Overall, it can be said here that we would probably only bet on the races or matches for medals. Only then does the creme de la creme of the respective sports face each other and most of the sport fans know the athletes and their capabilities.

Which bookmakers offer bets on the Olympics?

Before the opening ceremony on July 23, a few preparations have been made. Not only do the athletes themselves want to show their best performance here, but also the bookmakers will want to provide their customers with the best possible offer. The creme de la creme stocked up on great offers for this major event. Particularly in popular sports such as swimming, athletics and gymnastics, there are attractive odds.

In team sports such as soccer, handball or basketball, the focus is primarily on long-term bets. The odds before the start of the tournament have usually been very promising in the past and it is of course very possible that the bookmakers will come around the corner with higher odds. These would primarily be of interest to new customers. Existing customers could benefit from free bets. The Olympics will not be neglected here either and we will provide you with the latest Olympics betting tips and forecasts for the important events.
