Love Island Winning Couple Betting

Love Island Top Male Betting
After 10 days of action in South Africa, Ron Hall has a rival for top male glory and it is TikTok extraordinaire farmer Will Young!.
Hall has captured the imagination of a number of the girls in the villa and is set to walk a well trodden path to winning the nation's hearts after the latest re-coupling. Just before the dramatic choice, Hall pledged his loyalty to leading female Lana Jenkins after being tempted by new bombshell Zara. Ron and Lana seemed to be set to sail off into the South African sunset, until Tanyel chose Ron to recouple with and rocked the boat. The bond between Lana and Ron remained however and they now seem set to recouple and become one of the strongest partnerships in the villa. Jenkins was left in a friend couple with Will but both will be much happier now as Will is set to finally have a chance at romance with Jessie Wynter. Bookmakers can't split the duo for top male glory.
It's important to remember with Love Island new contestants enter all the time. The potential winner in this category may not have even entered the villa yet! For the time being you can find the latest odds on the current contestants here.

Love Island Top Female Betting
With Ron Hall storming to the top of the male market, it is no surprise to see his main love interest Lana Jenkins atop the female odds tables. Jenkins has seemed very genuine in the early stages and viewers have warmed to the organic journey her and sweetheart Hall seem to be on. They are set to be reunited in the latest recoupling and look the best bet to go all the way. Right next to them in the market now however are Will Young and Jessie Wynter. Wynter, a veteran of Love Island Australia, has taken to the eccentric charms of Young and by attaching herself to him (for genuine reasons or otherwise) is now second favourite to be the top female. What we wouldn't give to see a contender with Love Island experience play the game perfectly and snatch the cash at the end...
Jenkins was the narrow favourite before an episode of the show aired, but now is being chased down in the odds. Firecracker ring girl Olivia Hawkins still features prominently after seemingly getting the better of her arguments with bombshell Zara over another new boy Tom. Hawkins lost her couple partner in Harris but will get over it in no time and seems the type ready to switch and flirt at any opportunity, so if she can bring the drama without turning the public against her she should be box-office. Tanyel Revan made herself public enemy number 1 in separating Lana and Ron and as such has drifted to the biggest odds in the top female market.

Frequently asked questions when betting on Love Island
Where can I bet on Love Island?
A lot of bookmakers will offer Love Island odds when the popular reality show begins every summer/winter.
To find these, you will have to navigate through the bookmaker's website until you find the 'novelty' section, where betting on more obscure events like TV programs is made available.
This type of market has grown in popularity in recent years, as the world has become more transfixed on reality TV shows, mainly Love Island - one of the most watch programs on television every year.
What are the different markets you can bet on Love Island?
There are a number of different Love Island markets you can bet on, ranging from which couple will win the whole show, to who will finish as the program's 'top male' and 'top female'.
Because initially, nobody knows the contestants and how they will act throughout the experience, it's pot luck to pick the winner at the very start so probably best to wait until two/three weeks in before choosing an outright winning couple, that way you have had time to gage the characters before placing a more informed bet.
Which are the best bookies to bet with for Love Island?
As with most novelty markets, Paddy Power are one of the best bookies when it comes to betting on Love Island. William Hill, Betfair and bet365 have also offered good value in the past, so it's worth keeping an eye on them when the show begins again this summer.
