The Best Future Bets for 2024

The New Year is here, and so is the start of the cycling season. We're not entirely sure what will enfold in the new year, but we have some guesses, especially at where the book makers have placed a few riders far too long.

Remco Evenepoel : Tour de France

Remco is currently sitting at around eight to one to win the Tour de France. Which in our opinion is simply too long. Yes he has consistency issues and has also never raced it - but he's got the entire backing of the team and has won other Grand Tours in the past.

We do note that the time trialing in the 2024's Tour de France is not extensive and hence does not play directly into Remco's skillset. However the last day is a time trial which makes this Tour unique. We'll likely not have this for year's to come, and if Remco makes it to the final stage within striking distance of another rider - we definitely feel he has a good shot.

Take advantage of the price on Betway while you can. We don't think it will last forever.

Simon Yates : Tour de France

You're telling us this man has a whole team behind him, placed first in the first stage of the Tour last year, placed fourth overal, and Jayco has an even stronger squad this year, and he still has odds of greater than 100? That's a little crazy. Even on the 1/4 split of each ways you're still getting great value of ~25:1 odds to place in the top 3. Pretty durned good in our opinion.

Juan Ayuso will likely have to support Tadej Pogacar, and there's a greater than non zero chance that Remco drops out or does a similar stage hunting that he did in the Vuelta of 2023. That leaves the big three (Jonas, Tadej, and Primoz) and most certainly one of them could crash out. We could see Simon slipping into third in this scenario.

Pello Bilbao : Milan - San Remo

We're big believers in fading Matej Mohorič this year. We feel his popularity has peaked - especially with him aiming to pick up gravel races this year we can tell his focus is changing. Bilbao has shown he can top three not just stages at the Tour de France, but multiple one day races, such as San Sebastian. Bilbao excels at downhill finishes and we all know the most prominent downhill finish of the year: Milan - San Remo. We think Bahrain may give co-leadership to both Mohorič and Bilbao and think picking up Bilbao at these odds may be the right move, as Mohorič might skip the race altogether.

Joshua Tarling : Paris - Roubaix

The books just haven't caught up yet to Joshua Tarling. For time trials they have, and you unfortunately won't find long odds for him any longer, but they seem to forget that Paris Roubaix is a completely flat terrain and other strong time trialists with higher BMIs like Wout van Aert excel on the course. We're more than willing to place a bet here when the odds are 301.00. We've bet it so much it's moved down to 201.00 which is still a good buy in our opinion.
