Rafael Nadal vs Gilles Simon – I expect Simon to put up a fight and the Frenchman should be able to keep Rafa on court at least for three long tight sets. The Spaniard didn’t look untouchable in the previous two rounds and Gilles is not an easy opponent. Bet on Over 32.5 Games at $1.70.
Mikhail Youzhny vs John Isner – The American is not fit enough to serve at his best for five sets and in this case John doesn’t stand a chance against the Russian, who is all-round a much better player. It might get tight but the outcome is obvious. Bet on Mikhail to win at $1.65.
Sam Querrey vs Nicolas Almagro – This could be the longest match of the day between not the most consistent players on the Tour. The American is slightly favored on hard-court and with home crowd support but Almagro has a good chance too. Bet on Over 39.5 Games at $1.75.
Andy Murray vs Stanislas Wawrinka – Wawrinka’s has only once beaten a top 20 player at a Grand Slam. Murray is 3-0 head-to-head and is playing very well at the moment. It should be an easy match for Andy. Bet on Under 35.5 Games at $1.87.
David Nalbandian vs Fernando Verdasco – Nalbandian is currently very consistent and Verdasco’s form is less than convincing at the moment. The Argentine is a bad match up for Spaniard. Bet on David to win at $1.58.
Feliciano Lopez vs Sergiy Stakhovsky – Stakhovsky is better but might be exhausted after playing a ton of tennis the last two weeks. But there is a big advantage too when playing a lot and gaining the confidence necessary to win this kind of matches. Bet on Sergiy to win at $1.93.
Tommy Robredo vs Michael Llodra – Robredo has a decent record at the US Open but injury doubts combined with a lack of motivation have seen the Spaniard playing bad tennis this season. He hates big servers and Llodra is in top form at the moment. Bet on Michael to win at $2.28.
David Ferrer vs Daniel Gimeno-Traver – This will be the end of Gimeno-Traver’s nice run at Flushing Meadows because Ferrer is a bad match-up for him in this all-Spanish clash. Bet on David to win in straight sets at $1.84.
I bet Mardy to win at 251 to 1 well before the tournament and his fantastic performances in lead up tournaments.. hope he wins lol!
