Introduction to French Open Tennis Betting Tips
Our tennis expert previews the first-round action at the French Open, providing betting tips and analysis for Tuesday’s matches.
Match Previews and Betting Tips
The following matches are expected to be exciting and offer good betting opportunities:
1pt Daniil Medvedev to beat Cameron Norrie 3-0 at 6/4 (bet365)
1pt Over 33.5 games in Alex de Minaur v Laslo Djere at 4/5 (William Hill, 888sport)
1pt Hubert Hurkacz to beat Joao Fonseca at 6/5 (General)
Daniil Medvedev v Cameron Norrie
This match seems to favor Medvedev, who has won all four of their previous meetings in straight sets. Norrie’s service game numbers are concerning, with a hold percentage of just 44% and a break percentage of 14% against Medvedev. Although Norrie played well in Geneva last week, it’s uncertain whether he can turn these numbers around. Medvedev, a former Rome champion, has been playing well despite losses to high-quality opponents on clay. A straight-sets win for Medvedev at 6/4 is a worthwhile bet.
Alex de Minaur v Laslo Djere
Djere seems overpriced at 10/3, given his solid clay-court performance, including a title win in Santiago and a semifinal appearance in Buenos Aires. Although he trails 3-0 in the head-to-head, the pair has never met on clay, and two of those defeats saw Djere force a deciding set. De Minaur hasn’t been in top form lately, and this match may be a grind. The over 33.5 games market at 4/5 is an attractive option, as Djere has won sets against top-10 players at Roland Garros before.
Joao Fonseca v Hubert Hurkacz
Fonseca’s current form is a concern, with just one win in four European clay matches. Hurkacz, on the other hand, looked good in Rome and performed well in Geneva, narrowly losing to Novak Djokovic in the final. The Pole has the power to deny Fonseca his rhythm, and although the youngster will undoubtedly hit winners, his consistency is uncertain. Hurkacz appeals as an underdog with potential.
