2010 Tour of Qatar – Stage 1 Betting Odds

Sky are the favourites for what should be an interesting Team Time Trial of the season at Stage 1 of the Tour of Qatar. Sky have sent the big guns for this one including Bradley Wiggins and Edvald Boassen Hagen. Geraint Thomas rounds out a strong TTT team. The bookmakers agree and make Sky odds on favourites, best of 1.57 (4/7) with PaddyPower

Although Quickstep are second favourites we think the challenge to Sky will come from Garmin. We have no idea how the Trek Livestrong U23 team will go but at odds of 101.00 (100/1) it is surely worth an E/W bet with PaddyPower who are giving 1/5 odds for a top 3 place.

2009 Tour de France – Stage 7 Betting Odds

The high mountains arrive on Stage 7 of the 2009 Tour de France and Alberto Contador is favourite to take the stage but the big question is whether the big GC rivals will keep their powder dry for later stages or realise this is one of the few opportunities to put time into some tired rivals.

We anticipate a break going up the road and go for Caisse d’Epargne rider Davide Arroya at 51.00 (50/1) for an outside Each-Way bet with Bet365

Betting on one of the GC contenders we go for Carlos Sastre at 12.00 (11/1) with Expekt and Unibet

2009 Tour de France – Stage 4 Betting Odds

Stage 4 of the 2009 Tour de France sees the welcome return of the Team Time Trial. After the much-hyped TTT in the Giro where Columbia-HTC turned over Garmin-Slipstream we anticipate a reverse in roles. There is one other name to throw in the mix, that of Astana.

After two days of 50km chasing and working hard in the finale of Stage 3 it’s likely Columbia-HTC, at best odds of 5.50 (9/2) with Bet365 will be a team full of tired guys. Astana will be a tightly drilled team, just as all of Bruyneel’s teams have been, so expect them to come close and they are favourites at best odds of 1.76 (10/13) with Bet365 . We go for Garmin-Slipsteam at best odds of 4.75 (15/4) with Unibet who, on paper, have an incredible line-up of time-trialists and will be looking to get one over on rivals Columbia-HTC.

2009 Tour de France – Stage 3 Betting Odds

Following yesterday’s demolition of the opposition, Stage 3 of the 2009 Tour de France should bring another Mark Cavendish win. The bookmakers have Cavendish as such an outstanding favourite that not only is he clear odds-on leader in the market but second favourite Oscar Friere is at best odds of 13.00 (12/1). In other words – don’t put your money on anybody but Cavendish.

Velotips goes for Mark Cavendish at 1.67 (4/6) to win Stage 3 of 2009 Tour de France.
