Bet on Norway Chess 2020 Top Contender Magnus Carlsen

The 2020 Norway Chess tournament will soon take place with many familiar faces returning to the competition. Currently, defending champion Magnus Carlsen is the top hopeful to bet on Norway Chess 2020. However, Carlsen will need to be mindful of Fabiano Caruana who has the second-best odds of winning the competition. 

The upcoming Norway Chess competition will be live from 5 to 16 October 2020. However, unlike in previous competitions, this year’s competition will feature six instead of 10 competitors. Additionally, these are some of the hopefuls you can bet on Norway Chess 2020 on Unibet Sportsbook:

• Magnus Carlsen 1.40
• Fabiano Caruana 5.50
• Alireza Firouzja 15.00
• Aryan Tari 21.00

Bet on Norway Chess 2020 grandmaster Magnus Carlsen to defend his 2019 title

Norwegian chess player Magnus Carlsen currently has the best chance of winning the 2020 Norway Chess competition. However, it’s no surprise that the chess grandmaster has leading odds of winning on the online sportsbooks in Norway.

For instance, he has the best Norway Chess record with two titles from 2016 and most recently in 2019. Additionally, he’s the current World Chess Champion, World Rapid Chess Champion and World Blitz Chess Champion.

According to Unibet Sportsbook, you can bet on Norway Chess 2020 top hopeful Magnus Carlsen with good odds at 1.40.

Fabiano Caruana is likely to challenge Magnus Carlsen for the 2020 Norway Chess title

According to Unibet Sportsbook, Fabiano Caruana has the second-best chance of winning the 2020 Norway Chess competition. Caruana, who’s the currently the world number 2 is also no stranger to Norway Chess success after winning the 2018 title.

However, according to the online sportsbook news in Norway, he failed to defend his title. Fortunately, you can bet on Norway Chess 2020 hopeful Caruana to bounce back this year with odds at 5.50.

Norway Chess welcomes new addition Alireza Firouzja

All eyes will likely be on Alireza Firouzja, the young Iranian player who’s making waves in the international chess scene. The young talent is a two-time Iranian Chess Champion after winning the 2016 and 2019 title.

Additionally, he’s made himself known on an international level particularly after his World Fischer Random Chess Championship 2019 win. Despite this, the teenager has low odds of winning the upcoming Norway Chess 2020 competition.

Consequently, with Unibet Sportsbook odds at 15.00, Firouzja will be a risky hopeful to bet on Norway Chess 2020. However, he did surprise many by recording a runners-up finish at the 2019 World Rapid Championship behind Magnus Carlsen.

As a result, he could just be one of the underdogs to surprise us at all at the 2020 Norway Chess.

Aryan Tari unlikely to claim the 2020 Norway Chess win

According to Unibet Sportsbook, Norweigan hopeful Aryan Tari has the lowest chance of winning the 2020 Norway Chess competition. Additionally, this will be the first time Tari will compete in the competition after an unsuccessful 2016 Wild card qualifier.

Furthermore, Tari has a respectable record of two Norwegian Championship wins (2015, 2019) and a World Junior Chess Championship win (2017). However, with odds of winning at 21.00, he doesn’t pose as a favourable bet on Norway Chess 2020.
