Tour de France Betting Odds 2024

The Tour de France is widely known and regarded as the most difficult and prestigious event in cycling. The annual men’s multiple stage race is primarily held in France, with occasional routes through neighbouring countries. The Tour de France is a 21-day event that occurs over 23 days and is held during the month of July.

The first Tour de France was in 1903, and was held annually with the exception of the two World Wars – they have had 106 editions of the event and nearly cancelled again this year due to COVID-19. They decided to postpone the 2020 Tour de France until August 29th, 2020. This year’s event will take place between August 29th until September 20th.

The route changes each year, but the format of the race remains the same with the time trials, the route through the Pyrenees and the Alps, and the finish in the Champs-Elysees in Paris. Each year, between 20 and 22 teams arrive with eight riders per team, where they complete stages – the rider’s times are compounded with their previous stage times. The rider with the lowest finishing time is the leader of the race and wears a yellow jersey.

There are other skill contests within the tour, including the points classification for the sprinters, mountain classification for the climbers, young rider classification for those under 26 years old, and team classifications.

With such a renowned and prestigious tournament, you bet that sportsbooks will jump at the chance of offering cycling odds for the Tour de France.

Geraint Thomas will be looking to secure his second Tour de France title in July, as he missed last year’s tour due to injuries. He’d like to knock Bernal out of the top spot and claim the yellow shirt, but the Geraint Thomas Tour de France odds don’t measure up against the current champions Tadej Pogacar. It is common for the winner of the previous year’s Tour de France to be at the top of the odds board and favored to win the upcoming Tour. Pogacar won his first title last year.

The first step to starting your Tour de France betting strategy includes learning the popular betting options for the Tour de France.

Popular Tour de France Betting Options

If you head to the cycling section on your favorite online sportsbook, you may see some different betting types if you’re used to the regular moneylines, totals, and spreads.

With stage betting becoming increasingly popular, it’s always worth looking out for things like Tour de France stage 18 betting tips, as well as other highly popular stages. The Tour de France stage 4 odds always garner a lot of attention, so that’s another to keep an eye on.

Tour de France Futures

The Tour de France will have futures on the winner of the event, as you can see listed above, there are odds to win the Tour de France. This includes a list of the riders participating, with the riders that are most likely to win at the top. Futures will have higher odds but will be a riskier bet to place as there are so many cyclists to bet on.

If you feel that Geraint Thomas is a good choice you could get some great value at +800, rather than picking Egan Bernal who is at the top of the oddsboard at +275. A $100 wager on Thomas would pay out $900, while a $100 wager on Bernal would only pay out $375.

Futures are usually live as soon as an event is announced, you can usually place your wagers months in advance and find some real value – if you’re right.

Top 3 Finish

The top three finish allows a slight margin of error if you aren’t sure that your favorite cyclist will win the Tour de France. If you aren’t sure if they’ll win overall, but could do very well at the Tour and may place in the top three, you can place that wager with reduced odds. This can be a popular option as your rider only has to place in the top three for your bet to cash.

Top 10 Finish

This Tour de France betting type is the same as above, you get even more reduced odds and your rider just has to place tenth or better.

Stage Betting

You can bet on the top rider for each stage of the race as well. Some riders excel in certain routes or terrains so it can be a great value to bet on the stages of the Tour de France. Each stage will have betting odds, so it makes it easier if you know the rider’s style, and let’s say, if they are better in mountain terrain – maybe they would win the stage of the race through the mountains.
